Soul Mate's

We live in a society that tells us there is only one perfect match for us in the entire existence of man kind. One "soul mate" and that fate will bring them to us. Does this sound like a fairy tale to anyone else? There is no prince charming, there is no guarantee that you will fall in love, and be loved in return. Embedding us with the idea, that there is only one mate for us; puts added pressure in an already unstable world. "Will i find my soul mate?" or "did i miss my soul mate?" even "the love of my life died unexpectedly, will there be another soul mate for me in my life time?" Those are pretty big questions, a lot of strings attached, mainly to one's heart strings.
Theoretically its improbable that there's is only one perfect match in the world. Even as your reading this, there is someone out there thinking the same thought you are at this very moment. Are they your soul mate? They may live a world away, and you may never meet them. It doesn't mean you've missed your soul mate. That's why there is a billion dollar industry surrounding dating sights. People fear with out them, they will never find that soul mate. Psychic's also are big in the "match making" game. Not so much as bringing two people together, but rather reassuring you that your life holds meaning and you will find someone.
Statistically there are many suitable counter parts out there for each person. The hardest part is finding them. The oddest part about affairs of the heart and human nature is: The hunt is often sweeter than the kill. We fight tooth and nail to find that perfect person to settle down and procreate with, yet often enough once we have them and are stable we miss the hunt. We no longer deem our prince/princess charming worthy. Finding passion for something that's perpetually out of reach.
So although women are made to believe they are no whole with out a partner and a child, its simple ludicrous. There are many tasks and lessons to be learned - before one can stand as a pair. If one doth not know thy self, how an thy self be true? Life is hard, no matter what you have or don't have. Its supposed to be, if it was always smooth sailing there would be no sense of fulfillment. Nothing would be anything, and the world would seem topsi turvey, value would be lost. Treasure every aching moment of existence, because that's the true value, and its fleeting fast....
