A question was proposed earlier on Tumblr by someone whom I consider to be one of the most amazing creatures on the planet,
Xia d'Hurbin:
"Do you believe there are people that are perfect for each other?"I love answering question like this, because I know there are a lot of people out there who would say yes, or have an answer that's far too romantic than necessary.
I like to believe that there are these very rare connections, and they are more often occurring between great distance. Seeing things in someone that reflect yourself (interests, beliefs, perspectives) is not necessarily a connection waiting to happen. That is
you trying to fill a void, and you don't do that via someone else. That's something you have to fill with your Self.
Real connections are not justified by similarity, and they do not discriminate. They defy logic, and contain no sensibility. A real connection just is. Even if you never talk to the person ever again, that connection is still there. There's no breaking it once it's made. There's only the act of not acknowledging it, like compartmentalising a memory to a place unaccessible.
It's a cosmic joke, really...but the punchline is, essentially, up to you.
What are your thoughts on the matter? Do
you believe in soulmates; that perfect connection?
