There are millions of people who have partners, soulmates, who have fallen in love and married the same person, and yet they feel lonely! Many may not come out and tell you honestly, but if you ask the ideal couples, "Tell me one secret, do you ever feel lonely or anything like that?" They will say, "Yes!"
The only people who don’t feel lonely are the ones who are connected with the being, with the Self. Only one, who is established in the Self, feels no loneliness. Only spiritual elevation can take away loneliness, not soulmates.Growth in life, comes with gratitude/gratefulness
Beauty has many aspects, and gratefulness is one of them. You feel grateful when you don’t feel a sense of lack. You cannot be grateful and feel lack. Perhaps you experience both but at different times. When you feel lack, grumbling begins from a corner within. For those who do not have this knowledge, there is no way out of their grumbling. They feel some lack today, and tomorrow they think something else is lacking. There is no end to it. Your mind doesn’t think clearly, doesn’t function properly.
That is why Jesus said, “Those who have will be given more. As for those who do not have, even what they have will be taken from them.” If you are grateful, more things will flow to you. And when you complain and grumble, even what little joy, peace or love you have come into this world with will all be lost.
Grandmothers in India have a habit of saying, “Everything is full.” If a container or grocery item is used up, they never say, “We don’t have this.” They will say, “We have enough of this.” When you feel full in the mind, then ‘plenty-ness’ grows. Not having, is just an attitude in you; it’s the direction you are moving in. Whatever it is, it grows. You sow the seeds, and they grow. If the seed itself is a seed of lack, only lack will grow. Open your eyes and see what you have been given! In that gratefulness, everything grows, life grows.
