“I Haven’t Met You Yet”

For those of you who didn’t celebrate Valentine’s Day this year, here are some thoughts on your search for your soul mate.  This may not apply to you, but it does to someone you know.

Let’s go back to the “Life As Your Coach” concept and apply it to dating.

Life as Your Coach, or your ultimate personal trainer G-d, will send you tests and struggles (drills and exercises) all designed to help you find the you, you are meant to be.  What is sent your way may not be what you want, but what your coach knows you need.  He knows you and knows your strengths and weaknesses.  He will, over time, send you these tests designed to improve upon your strengths and turn your weaknesses into strengths.  Viewed this way, allows you to accept that these tests are for your good.

How does this apply to dating?  One of the things that Life as Your Coach is preparing you for, is your soul mate.

Let’s use the sport of Boxing as a metaphor again to help explain.

A boxing coach will have you do all sorts of drills and exercises, designed for you, to prepare you to enter the ring.  He knows you and what specifically it takes to get you ready.  When ready, he will have you spar or fight many different kinds of opponents.  All of the experiences and all you learn from these opponents, will make you a better boxer and prepare you to go pro.  The longer it takes you to learn (that’s up to you), the longer it takes before the coach let’s you go pro.

In dating, life as your coach, will send you all kinds of people to meet and date.  You will date the good, the bad, and the ugly.  You might meet a frog, kiss it and hope it becomes a prince or princess.  You might meet what you think is a prince or princess and find out it’s really a frog, then you kiss it and it’s still a frog.  All of these people, dates, and experiences are meant to make you kinder, more sensitive, a more giving partner, and prepare you for your Ultimate Match (pun intended).

Keep this in mind……..Your Ultimate Match, your soul mate, is also going through the same type of preparation at the same time, getting ready to meet you.

Like Michael Buble’s song says “I Haven’t Met You Yet”.  If you haven’t met yet, it’s because you’re not ready YET!!  Keep your heart open and you will be Soon!!
