       The story of Soul mates
       According to Plato's creation story in the Symposium...
       In the beginning there was only one human.
       And this human was "created perfection. The strange thing was
       that this first    "created perfection" human had all the
       "necessary" male parts, as well as having all the "necessary”
       female parts. But this perfect human, was then tragically split
       apart. And since then, the two halves (Male and female) have
       been forever searching for one another in order to join together
       and regain their sense of original created wholeness.Separately
       “Each of us when separated, having one side only is   but
       indenture of a man, and he is always looking for his other
       half."
       Thomas Moore –
       "A soul mate is someone to whom we feel
       profoundly connected, as though the communicating and communing
       that take place between us were not the product of intentional
       efforts, but rather a divine grace. This kind of relationship is
       so important to the soul that many have said there is nothing
       more precious in life."
