Old souls feel so familiar when you meet them. They fit your heart like a Hallmark card. They make you smile, your heart feel warm and give you reason to laugh out loud. Old souls are lovers, not haters- givers, not takers. They are blessings by virtue of the fact that they done been there did that. With wisdom they can relate to you and yours. And empathy is part and parcel of their journey. Old souls are sometimes like four leaf clovers- few and far between. So if you know one, keep them close to heart and hearth. LGR(C)11/4/18 |

Have know a few (still know some), but one in particular stands out - he was only 15 and far, far older than me. Great piece, my friend. j. |

This was a warm & wonderful read. I've known a few adults that are old souls, & a couple children who I think of as 'old-souls'..special indeed. Sky~ ~Don't Quit Your Day Dream~ |
