My definition of soulmate is a person of opposite gender who shares the same idea as I do and shares almost similar tastes in music, food and opinions of life as me. Bonus - this person enjoys photography (Similar photography taste as mine or even better). We can then comfortably sit ourselves in the living room to enjoy music together. We can then cook together or at least, I whip up the meal while he waits eagerly to enjoy what I've prepared for breakfast. 

To me, finding a soul mate is like finding someone who has known me even before I was created. This person will have my likings at the tips of his fingers and this person genuinely enjoys everything that I enjoy. He will not enjoy it just because I enjoy it. He enjoys it because all those things define him, just like how my likings define me. Vice Versa. 

There will be a lot of awkward moments and we will grow to be so comfortable with them that it isn't even awkward anymore. People will ask me if there's any problem with me when I don't talk but this person will be the one who knows that if I keep silence in anyone's presence, I am more than being perfectly fine. I just don't feel like speaking. That's just me. I am, usually, not who you think I am when you first meet me - perhaps The Noisy Jacquelyn or The Loud Jacquelyn. In fact, I enjoy silence as well. I enjoy being noisy and I enjoy being silent. This person will understand this weird side of me. This person will initiate being crazy and make me laugh like I've not laughed before, instead of me being the crazy one, being all animated and waiting for people to laugh along. This person will have a part of me in him and I will have a part of him in me.

This person will know exactly when to leave me alone and this person will be there when I need him most. This person will always direct me to Jesus whenever I lose my directions in life. This person's presence will give me strength. He don't need to speak a word but his presence alone can give me strength. This person will be able to communicate with me through his eyes. One look and he'll know what's wrong.

Having a soul mate is almost an impossible thing for me because of my erratic mood that sometimes even I cannot understand. One moment I'm all joyous and I feel like I'm the most blessed girl on Earth and the next minute I can be freaking out at almost everything. I don't show what I am freaking out but my insecurities will be worn on my face. This is so irritating. I find my insecurities too insignificant and too silly to be told to anyone. So, unless he is my soulmate who knows me damn well that even without me having to speak a word, he understands the situations. Else, he'll be spending the next few hours figuring what has gotten into me. 

In all, soulmate don't come easy for me. If you happen to have one, I am extremely happy for you. I would hold celebrations for you if I could. I have a few couples whom I would love to celebrate for them even though I don't know them personally. Cherish your soulmate!
