We'll, I had one friend that actually put all the variables that he wanted into a spreadsheet, joined up to high paying dating sites and also went out to only the the establishments and activities where people of the type he thought were the perfect life partner would appear.
Oh yeah, most of it had to do with status, where you went to school and of course, if you made enough money of your own so that, hopefully, if a divorce happened, you might just leave the millins alone.
Wait, I forgot, you had to have cherubic cheeks and play high level piano.
I wonder if he will ever find the perfect partner....
Because, well, what IS the perfect partner?
Is it really the one you never fight with, have 5 perfect kids who go to the perfect school and, after twenty grandkids, you die and they go on for fifty generations and then, magically, you achieve immortality via the cryogenic freezing you could afford because, well, one of your original five discovered the true meaning of conciousness and how that whole thing works and you became a deity?
I think I already met a few of my perfect partners.
Each one taught me a lesson or lessons I had to learn in this life.
I even married one for 7 years and, for the most part, we had a blast.
I'm still having one to be honest.
A blast, that is.
And, I hope she is to.
Last we talked, after almost seven years apart, she said she appreciated what I did for her.
I didn't ask her if she did, it just came out at the end of our conversation.
She didn't specify what that was, but, I thanked her because I knew what it as.
And so did she, which is why she said it.
See, some lessons do not take a few weeks.
Some take years.
And the realizations can come much later.
Mine was that, if she had not been the happy go lucky, energetic and beautiful person she was, I would have gotten Bored way back before we ever even decided to get married.
I would not have stuck around to learn the hard lessons I did at the end.
I really was a big EGO you see.
And, anyone living with me long term?
Even at my worst, I could show you that being happy is possible, no matter what.
So, maybe those people that seem to hurt us the most, are actually the perfect partner for you, right at the perfect time, so you can go on to more and higher lessons.
What about all those perfect couples you see everywhere though?
Hmmm, maybe they already had a few lives where they earned this one, where they get to take a break and just kick back.
And that, well, it might only come through grace..
E-GO 2018
