There's a Chinese proverb about the "red string of fate" that ties us through lifetimes to the one we are meant to be with, the life partner who holds a match for the missing piece of your soul. There will be others along the way who serve to give us lessons as we grow and evolve into the person we are meant to be, so long as we are willing to see those lessons for what they are, hold them for a time, and move on. I believe this to be true. In hindsight, I wish I had been open to these ideas 30 years ago when I thought I had life by the tail, but really didn't know shit. I've lived and learned - I'm still learning - and one day I will find the person holding the other end of my string.

I love this so much. I feel it too. When your life is filled with great love, when love is the through line of everything you do, it’s hard not to believe in the magic and the mystery of it. There are so many of those moments in life when you find yourself breathless, speechless...and you feel as though you’re part of a great and wonderful whole.
