And as you get to know  each other more, you begin to feel the connection deepen and you feel  that you must have an arrangement with this person that predated this  lifetime.<\/font><\/p>\n<p><font face=\"verdana\" size=\"4\" color=\"#0E4A05\"> <\/font><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><font face=\"verdana\" size=\"3\" color=\"#0E4A05\">Do not assume, however, that this soul connection necessarily  means that you are meant to be happily together for this lifetime. It  may be that you are meant to be friends and allies, helping each other  out. It may be that you are going to help each other in ways that even  involve conflict and separation, but with an end result that is  beneficial to you. It may be that you are going to learn some lesson  from each other and then go your separate ways.<\/font><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><font face=\"verdana\" size=\"3\" color=\"#0E4A05\">What you need to do with all relationships, including those that  have that instant and deep connection, is let be. You need to allow all  of life, including close relationships, flow and evolve. You need to  let people be who they are, not what you want them to be. And above all,  you must not try to control, push and prod, manipulate and orchestrate  relationships.<\/font><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><font face=\"verdana\" size=\"3\" color=\"#0E4A05\">Have the courage and the heart, the centeredness, to follow your  own path, to be who you are and love being who you are, no matter what.  Shine out and show us who you are, so that people who are looking for  someone exactly like you can find you. Do not allow setbacks or even  major betrayals to dampen your shine and your being.<\/font><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><font face=\"verdana\" size=\"3\" color=\"#0E4A05\">In life&#8217;s journey you will encounter much, narrow paths blocked  by avalanches, forks in the road shrouded in fog, deep valleys of  darkness and bright sunny days in meadows of golden poppies. It is all a  part of life. And as you walk your path, other people will join you for  a time: a dear friend, a lover, a spouse, children and parents. And  then they may go away.<\/font><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><font face=\"verdana\" size=\"3\" color=\"#0E4A05\">And through it all, the only constant is that you are you, that  you have a core of truth within you and a path to walk, and if you allow  your core of truth to tell you which fork in the road to take, if you  allow that internal compass to tell you which mountain to climb, then  you will do well indeed and have a fulfilling, interesting life. If you  go chasing after others, trying to make things be other than how they  naturally are, then you will find yourself suddenly awakening in a deep  forest without knowing where to turn. You will find yourself lost and  confused, because you have lost touch with your own personal truth.<\/font><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><font face=\"verdana\" size=\"3\" color=\"#0E4A05\">And when this happens, you must just sit down in the forest,  become very still, and return to yourself. You must reach down and find  yourself again before you continue walking, or else you will simply go  around in circles, becoming more desperate and alone and lost.<\/font><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><font face=\"verdana\" size=\"3\" color=\"#0E4A05\">You are everything you need to be, just as you are, right now.  You are the center of your own life. You are the beacon that shines and  shows the way.<\/font><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><font face=\"verdana\" size=\"3\" color=\"#0E4A05\">Be glad when others walk beside you, enjoy their company,  connect as closely and deeply as you can, but always, always, shine your  own light and walk your own path and allow them to do the same.<\/font><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><font size=\"2\"><br \/>\n<\/font><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" style=\"border: 0pt none\" src=\"http:\/\/i57.photobucket.com\/albums\/g208\/ammango\/angel_love\/journey\/1165a58b.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><font size=\"2\"><br \/>\n<\/font><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><font size=\"2\">Love &amp; Light,<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.friendburst.com\/Angel_Love\">Angel Love<\/a><\/font><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><font size=\"2\"><br \/>\n<\/font><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" style=\"border: 0pt none\" src=\"http:\/\/i57.photobucket.com\/albums\/g208\/ammango\/angel_love\/hearts\/plantheart.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/font><\/font><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>You  will sometimes meet someone you believe is a soul mate; you feel the  connection on many levels, perhaps instantly.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[10],"tags":[2676,69,2110,32,2106,5264],"class_list":["post-89842","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-life","tag-angel-love","tag-life-2","tag-light","tag-love","tag-path","tag-soulmate"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/friendburst.com\/blog-new\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/89842","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/friendburst.com\/blog-new\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/friendburst.com\/blog-new\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/friendburst.com\/blog-new\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=89842"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/friendburst.com\/blog-new\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/89842\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/friendburst.com\/blog-new\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=89842"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/friendburst.com\/blog-new\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=89842"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/friendburst.com\/blog-new\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=89842"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
