A kindred spirit is far more than a best friend. They are not only one with whom you share similar values, but one who understands you like no other, maintains a similar worldview, betters you, supports you in your endeavors, thrives when seeing you succeed. Kindred spirits certainly do not have to be romantic interests or partners, but simply friends, mentors, church leaders, teachers, family members. When you have found your kindred spirit, you just know. Your heart speaks to you; your souls instantly collide; you feel it deep inside of you that you have found your special human.
Knowing you have found your kindred spirit:
- Being with them is the best feeling. It makes your heart happy.
- Goodbyes are always dreaded occasions—even temporary ones.
- You feel like family.
- You don’t have to explain yourself because they understand.
- Your conversations flow fluently.
- Phones? What are phones? When you are with them, you forget about technology.
- You want to be around them as much as you can, to absorb their wisdom.
- You quickly become their biggest supporter.
- They fill your life with light, love, and compassion.
- You have a strong, shared intuition.
- You connect on a level that transcends the surface.
“From the moment I met you, your personality had the most extraordinary influence over me. I was dominated, soul brain and power.” ~Oscar Wilde
