>>> Profound article on The Soul

>>>

>>> In our lifetime we meet many persons from different walks of life.

Some

>>> we

>>> like, some we become fond of, with some we feel comfortable, with some

we

>>> feel affectionate, some we want them to stay around with us, with some

we

>>> strike meaningful conversation, with some we feel the warmth &

sincerity,

>>> some

>>> become life long friends after having met the first time, some become

>>> loyal

>>> and trust worthy BUT there are some we don't seem to like even during

our

>>> first meeting. There are some without assigning any genuine reason we

>>> would

>>> like to keep away from. Some we meet quite frankly at the first

meeting

>>> we

>>> seem to develop a dislike, and there are some we don't want to know

>>> them.The

>>> Question is: Why does this happen? This is due to interaction between

>>> different souls. I came across this in a newsgroup and found it be

>>> profound,

>>> it sheds some light on why we react to some people and why we

sometimes

>>> feel

>>> that we have known that person even though we have never met them.With

>>> each

>>> person who passes through your life, you have a soul agreement. What

>>> this

>>> means is that, long ago in the realm of the soul, you promised to have

>>> some

>>> special encounter, share some life-shaping experience, complete some

>>> soul-

>>> honing work with that particular soul in this life. Soul agreements

are

>>> commitments to the evolution of our individual souls in conjunction

with

>>> one

>>> another, as one by one we make the journey to that state of seamless

>>> awareness

>>> that the mystics call Enlightenment.It is because of these agreements

on

>>> a

>>> soul level that at times you may feel a mysterious strange connection

>>> with

>>> some other person, why difficult people may at times inexplicably

inhabit

>>> your

>>> life, why you may find yourself on a journey with a particular

person -

>>> as if

>>> you had an unwritten contract to fulfill - and then discover that, as

if

>>> by

>>> amputation, your association is suddenly over.As the community of

souls

>>> who

>>> have gathered together in life on Earth, we have agreed not only to

>>> remember

>>> for each other the pure state that was our origin, but also to act out

>>> whatever portion of the needlessly changing tableau of human

>>> experience.We

>>> have been called upon to play to ensure our own soul's growth, and

that

>>> of

>>> the souls to whom we have made these deep promises. Some of us are

here

>>> to be

>>> beautiful and strong, others to be cranky and difficult, some teach us

>>> through

>>> the searing heartbreak, others to instruct us through wisdom, but no

>>> matter

>>> what role we are playing, we are all enacting a part in that one great

>>> spiritual destiny, which is to remember our eternal essence and move

>>> toward

>>> ultimate union.So it is that every person you meet, each soul who

crosses

>>> your

>>> path and affects you - wonderfully and terribly, briefly, or for a

>>> lifetime -

>>> is here for that reason, and every relationship you engage in, is but

a

>>> small

>>> scene in the vast, ever-unfolding human panoply that is being

endlessly

>>> enacted for the purpose of your soul's development.When you recognize

>>> this,

>>> you will suddenly, breathtakingly see that each person has been

brought

>>> to you

>>> with a high and elegant purpose, that each soul has come to touch your

>>> soul

>>> and teach it, and that each relationship exists to hasten your own

soul's

>>> beautiful awakening.No longer is anyone a stranger, no longer can any

of

>>> your

>>> relationships be seen as failures or mistakes. In the light of the

>>> Spirit, we

>>> see that we are all playing out roles that are the fulfillment of an

>>> exquisite

>>> and all-encompassing plan.To recognize this is to step out of

conflict,

>>> and

>>> into Grace. For when we realize that life has been so beautifully

>>> designed,

>>> we will bask in the light of the Spirit and we will live in absolute

>>> Peace.
