“قال يحاصرني واقع لا أجيد قراءته
قلت دوّن إذن، ذكرياتك عن نجمة بعُدت
وغد يتلكأ، واسأل خيالك: هل
كان يعلم أن طريقك هذا طويل؟
فقال: ولكنني لا أجيد الكتابة يا صاحبي!

والشمس تملأ نصفها الثاني ...”

A true soul mate is probably the most important person you'll ever meet, because they tear down your walls and smack you awake. But to live with a soul mate forever? Nah. Too painful. Soul mates, they come into your life just to reveal another layer of yourself to you, and then leave.
A soul mates purpose is to shake you up, tear apart your ego a little bit, show you your obstacles and addictions, break your heart open so new light can get in, make you so desperate and out of control that you have to transform your life, then introduce you to your spiritual master...”
