Romancing the Soul - True Stories of Soul Mates from Around the World and Beyond brings together sixty beautiful and compelling stories from people all over the world who have found their soul mates through real-life miracles and chance encounters.  From karmic soul mates to twin souls, these powerful and heartwarming stories will not only mystify you, they'll make a believer out of you!
The Introduction...

Snow White and Prince Charming.  Romeo and Juliet.

Beauty and the Beast.  Harry and Sally.

These are all names that come to mind when one thinks of the term soul mate.

This ancient belief can be found in cultures the world over. 

But what does the term soul mate actually mean?

In the dictionary, "soul mate" means one of two persons compatible with each other in disposition, point of view or sensitivity; someone for whom you have a deep affinity.

This explains the basic qualities, but we all know the soul mate theory goes much
deeper than that.

According to Celtic wisdom, our souls begin their journey together as one being that becomes broken apart.  Two souls emerge and move on into their life journeys. 
Perhaps we find our twin soul in this life.  Maybe we find it in another life.  Throughout time, we seek to rejoin our anam cara, the Celtic word for "soul mate," a soul mate who was created as our perfect match.

In order for our soul mate to appear we must be ready for them.  You will not meet
your soul mate if you are still coming from a place of fear or jealousy in relationships.

You couldn't run before you could walk, and you won't meet your soul mate before you are ready to learn what she/he has to teach you.  In order to find our soul mate, we
must be emotionally secure and know what we want from life....
Still not a believer?
Let me tell you my story then.  The story of how Romancing the Soul was born
which created a new awareness in people's lives.  It shook them up to the point where they could now turn to those special loved ones and ask, "Are you my soul mate?" and get answers.

The year was 2001.  The same week that terrorists created havoc in America, a very special friend of mine died. 

A week afterwards, he came to me in a dream and told me to tell our story to the world by putting it in a book.  He also told me to tell the stories of others...other people who had found their soul mates...and call it...Romancing the Soul.

I jumped out of bed and wrote everything down that I could remember.  The very next day, I put out a call for stories.  Three years later, Romancing the Soul was born.

However, it didn't stop there. 

The quest to help people find their soul mates goes on forever.  What people don't
realize is that there are many, many potential soul mates out there for them and each one comes into your life for a reason.  Romancing the Soul helps you understand that.

Romancing the Soul is not just a collection of stories; it's also a how-to book on how to find your soul mate.  To help you understand this sometimes baffling phenomenon, the stories were put in one of the three categories:  karmic soul mates, companion soul mates and twin souls.  By reading the introduction and preface which examines the three different kinds of soul mates, and then the stories that accompanies them, you will be able to apply this to your life and discover who your soul mates are.

"Soul Mates is a
real phenomenon,
not just a catchy
New Age phrase.  In
this book, you will find stories about how individuals
met their Soul
Mates and how their lives were effected by
them.  Some stories
start out as classic boy-meets-girl
events, but they end with a twist.  Other stories are about how people met under very unusual circumstances - sometimes from across the world and across cultures.  By the time you finish reading Romancing the Soul--True Soul Mate Stories from around the World and Beyond, you will know in your heart and mind that Soul Mates do exist.  I recommend that you read Romancing the Soul--True Soul Mate Stories from around the World and Beyond with your Soul Mate."

"To say that twin flames are two halves of the same soul implies that each soul is incomplete. It implies the fallibility of God’s creation. This, of course, is impossible. We are whole and always have been."
~ Louix Dor Dempriey.
