wolfsong, I admire your ability to recognize and accept that certain relationships may be of an ephemeral nature for a reason, and that ideally they enhance our lives as they come and go. That is a shortcoming of mine, for sure--I have yet to master this skill, sometimes even in hindsight. I can languish over the hows and whys of the impermanence of these interactions, and find new and exciting ways to blame myself for their lack of continuity.
I am learning, however, and I am grateful as it has heightened my appreciation of some of these relationships, and allowed me to forgive myself in the process.
Thank you for your two cents, wolfsong.
Soul mates really seem to come in all shapes, sizes, and with a host of purposes.
