I read this on my way back from San Fran on a recommendation from Carla. It is an easy read and I nearly finished it in one sitting which for a slow reader like myself tells me that it is an easy read. As the other reviews suggest, the title is a bit misleading since you don't learn skills to find the "one" but rather how to do your homework on yourself before and while in relationships. I especially liked the "prayer for stressful times" which we can all use to manage our current stresses. So my question that never gets answered from this book is "if I'm doing all this work to find oneness with the spirit so that I can be in a 'soul mate' relationship, and my partner isn't on this same journey; does that mean I'm just doing all the work?" I'd like to know since I already multitask A LOT.

This book is not what it seems to be from the title - it is actually a book about personal spirituality. And the people who come into our lives with whom we connect on a very deep, almost compelling level are there to teach us about the parts of ourselves that still need healing and through this healing, allow us to ascend to another level of spiritual enlightenment. We attract people who are specifically matched to us to push our buttons and vice versa. But of course!

"You are not successful in love just because you find a partner and stick with them for a lifetime (as my parents did); you are successful in love when it provides you with a way to keep learning about yourself and the world around you, becoming more connected with the oneness of all of life. Each experience we have--glorious, sad or frustrating--becomes a strand in the web of our evolution." Amen, sister.
