Most of our stories so far have been from the later stages of the journey. I thought we would share a story of an inspiring first meeting.
My life, before the spiritual awakening, felt like an endless downward spiral. I was lost, disconnected, and unhappy. I don’t know what called me to even consider this, but out of the blue, I booked a meditation retreat.
I had never meditated once, but I knew I needed a change. This seemed like a good place to start. I thought at least I would get a few days’ peace to get my mind right. The universe had other ideas.
The retreat itself was lovely. It was set in a serene environment, surrounded by nature. It was obviously made as a tourist trap with overpriced water bottles, but the staff genuinely took an interest in our enjoyment of the experience.
It was here that I encountered my twin flame.
At first, I thought the people around me just inspired me. They were all working to better themselves and had these interesting backgrounds.
Something was driving me to take a good look at my life and question everything about it. Why had I let myself feel this way? Why had I wasted all this time? Why do I lie on my couch watching Netflix when I’m not even enjoying it?
I threw myself into the retreat. Telling myself I was going to be better.
That I just happened to keep choosing the same classes as this person seemed like a crazy coincidence at the time.
Our eyes met for the first time during a sunset yoga session. My heart raced, and my breath caught in my throat. Was it the yoga or something else entirely?
I couldn’t shake the feeling that I knew this person but was too shy to ask. I kept stealing glances, trying to figure out where I knew him from.
At this point, I had never heard of a twin flame. I had no real understanding of spirituality, and I feel like I am still trying to catch up.
That’s when it happened—the divine intervention, I suppose. Our hands brushed against each other during a group activity, and an electric shock of recognition coursed through me!
My entire being screamed, “This is it!”
I don’t usually get attached to people. At first, I thought it was something to do with the yoga, or maybe they put something in those incense sticks.
I tried to play it off cooly (by falling off my yoga mat and rolling away), but I knew there was something about this stranger.
After the activity, we finally talked. It was like we’d known each other forever. Our conversations flowed effortlessly, and we couldn’t help but laugh, cry, and share our deepest thoughts and emotions.
I felt so alive and connected to the universe, and for the first time, I understood what my life was supposed to feel like.
This first meeting with my twin flame began a new chapter in my life.
That was almost six months ago.
As the retreat came to an end, I was filled with a mix of excitement and anxiety. I knew our connection was powerful and meaningful, but I was also aware that life would inevitably change once we returned to our everyday routines.
The first few weeks were a whirlwind of long phone calls, late-night texts, and video chats. It was as if the universe was trying to keep us together.
Unlike most stories, there hasn’t been a dramatic separation. We live several hours apart but meet at least once a week, and we’re planning our second retreat together.
Part of me is waiting for the other shoe to drop. I’ve been reading a lot of twin flame advice, and maybe it won’t work out right away. No matter where our journey takes us, I know that our twin flame bond is a gift that will continue to enrich our lives in unimaginable ways.
The fear of separation and the uncertainty of the future may still linger, but I choose to trust the divine plan and surrender to the universe.
Through faith, patience, and zero resistance, I know that our love will conquer all. And together, my twin flame and I will continue to grow and flourish, embracing every challenge and opportunity that comes our way.
