I think you can come across someone where you serve a wholly rewarding and compassionate and selfless purpose in each other's lives, but it doesn't have the glue needed to be forever. And that's okay. I think we need to recognize this within the context of soul mates and the pressure we put on ourselves. You can love someone who comes into your life and sets you free; they can love you for doing the same. But sometimes the moreness that you need isn't there, the aligned worldview, priorities, understanding, and yes, timing and willingness to work for it. It might not be there. And that’s okay.
