How do you know

How did you meet?

Is it true there are soul mates who meet again and again throughout time?

Is it possible that people can be drawn together by fate?

Is it simply luck?

Or perhaps simple attraction -- like magnets?

Whenever I have met people who end up being important to me I always have the feeling we were meant to be together, but I have been wrong at least once. At least I think I have been wrong, but who knows? Even bad experiences shape our lives, draw us down one path or another .

If there is a divine power directing our lives I suppose it is possible that sixty years might not seem too long to it in the scope of eternity. Where we feel we have twenty or twenty five years to shape a child into an adult, that power might feel it needs fifty, or sixty to achieve some purpose.

Maybe even more!
