 SOULMATE

 Thomas Moore described a soulmate as:  

"someone to whom we feel profoundly connected, 

as though the communication 

and communing that take place between us 

were not the product of intentional efforts, 

but rather a divine grace."

Bashert  is a Yiddish word that means "destiny."  It's used often in the context of a person's divinely foreordained spouse or soulmate.


Yiddish: באַשערט     


Female:  "basherte"
Male:  "basherter"


It can also be used to express the seeming fate or destiny of an auspicious or important event, friendship or happening.

A soulmate  

is someone who has locks that fit our keys, 

and keys to fit our locks.

When we feel safe enough 

to open the locks, 

our truest selves step out, 

and we can be completely and honestly who we are; 

we can be loved for who we are, 

and not for who we're pretending to be.

Each unveils the best part of the other.   

No matter what else goes wrong around us, 

with that one person we're safe in our own paradise.  

Our soulmate is someone who shares our deepest longings, 

our sense of direction.

When we're two balloons, 

 and together our direction is up, 

 chances are we've found the right person.

Our soulmate  

is the one who make life come to life.
