| Love Music.

Some believe, as I never used to, that soulmates do exist. That there is one person in all the world that can bring about ultimate fulfillment, boundless love, and perfect completeness in your life. That such things are written for us in the very stars, through the Fates, or merely in our very biology. That if you never find that one, you will never be completely happy. But when you do find that one, you know it through and through, to the tiniest microbe of your being. I had never believed in this. I always thought music was my soulmate, for want of a better word. Music has always inspired me, lived within me, flowed through me beat for beat with my very heart. Music has been the background of all my life's moments, both in joy and in sadness, in love and in loss, in companionship or in my lonliest hours. Music has always been there, and I have adored it with a passion I never felt for anything, nor anyone else.
I, like most people I am sure, can name the tune that played, either in their mind, or around them, through all of their biggest lovelife moments. The first kiss. The first experience of lovemaking. The first great heartbreak. However, music has been so a part of me that I can recall the music that played around me, or in me, at most of my smaller moments as well. The first cup of coffee I ever drank. The first day of a new job. The first song I ever put on a cell phone. Yes, it may seem strange to most of you, but I am that musically inclined. It has to do with my parents, I am sure, and the first time they took me out as a baby. I was six months old, or so they tell me, and they sat me on a speaker stack, in my bassinette during a garage jam session. With the lead guitarist, a friend of theirs, checking on me during songs, and they checking on me during song breaks, they were shocked to find I slept the whole way through, a tiny little smile on my baby face. Is it any wonder that music has been my one true love?
That is, of course, until now. So cynical was I that another person could make me feel what music has always made me feel, that to find a woman who makes me feel likewise, and more, was quite the shock. And I have found her, she whose voice fills my mind before music does now. She whose laugh is the greatest melody I have ever heard. She who makes me feel more alive than music ever did.
I shall always love music. It is my first love. But I have found the greatest gift a man could ever receive. The ability, and the joy, of being able to keep my first love, and my last love, in my heart together forever.
Better still, jealousy is never an issue, for she loves my first love almost as much as I do.
Until next time, my loving friends. Keep the music of love, and the love of music, in your hearts and souls. |

I believe in soul mates as well. I believe that I have met mine, though he does not love me in that way. Despite this unrequited love, I feel that he is my other half. |

I believe in soul mates, but soul mates don't always have to be a lover or love interest. I feel that my brother, who is 3 years younger than me, is my soul mate. I just know that if anything every happened to him, I would know it, I would feel it in my bones. The same goes with my daughter. I think in this life, we come in contact with people for a purpose to show us our inner selves. To show us that there is more to life than we could ever imagine. |

Great writing! I do believe in soulmates. I met mine when I was 25. My whole world changed then. They say that your soulmate is your twin flame. You may or may not meet them in your life time, but everyone has one! I personally find mucic very inspiring as well. To really appreciate music, one must be open to the variety of music out there. I run karaoke as a second job just for this very reason. |
