Soul Mates

I am going to blame my romantic streak first on Danielle Steel and then on Nora Roberts. As a teen I read Steel's The Promise. (I just looked it up, it was published in 1978 - I was 17. I know I was a hopeless romantic WAY before then...what on earth was I reading before that? It is most definitely the novel I remember the most.) 

ANYWAY, it started me on a lifelong love of romance novels and at thisclose to 52 I can tell you Nora Roberts has kept it going. Nothing makes me happier than when Roberts' writes a series of books.

I know I am not alone in this addiction to love. To romance. To passion.

I also don't think this is limited to a woman only phenomenon. Nicholas Sparks it totally proof of that.

I went onto Pinterest and typed in "soul mate." Then I clicked on boards. I lost count when I got to over 600 Pinterest Boards with soul mate in the title. OK, a few WERE about shoes, and some were about food (?), but the majority of them were about the love of a soul mate. I went through some of the boards, found a lot of quotes I adored, added them to the many I had already saved and created the slide show below. 

Do you have a favorite slide? Just so you know... I have several.

So, I am curious, dear readers. What do you think? Is there such a person? Are you with your soul mate? (Now would probably be a good time to take advantage of the anonymous comment ability...) Do you think there's a red string from one person to you? Do you meet when you're young? When you're old? Do you reconnect with someone from your past after you've lived life for a while? Is it a "When Harry Met Sally" kind of thing?
