A Passage of emense emotion.

Mar 23, 2005 16:05

But I have one want which I have never yet been able to satisfy; and the absence of the object which I now feel as a most severe evil. I have no friend,... when I am glowing with the enthusiamsum of success, there will be none to partisipate my joy; if I am assailed by dissapointment, no one will endever to sustain me in dejection. I shall commit my thoughts to paper, its true; but that is a poor medium for the communication of feeling. I desire the company of a man who could sympathize with me; whose eyes could repy to mine. You may deem me Romantic, ... but I bitterly feel the want of a friend.

-R. Walton in Frankenstien

This passage expresses so much of what we feel, I thought it unusual that the author of Giffin & Sabine described a soulmate as "your perfect opposite."

Do we all have a soulmate, a perfect opposite whose eyes can reply to your own? Reminds me of the musings of That prince in Ever After.
Stimulates thought.
