The meant-to-be together theory applied to Earth itself. "The planet I was born on is very much like yours. A twin of Earth, if you will. On ours, though, we hear all around us. The people, the animals, the plants, the planet as a whole. We "hear" the energy. When a child is born, the God-given mate of him or her is located and, if born yet, the two families move next to each other so that the two can grow up together." Teoria meniti a fi împreuna aplicata Pamântului în sine. "Planeta pe care m-am nascut se aseamana foarte mult cu a ta. Un geaman al Pamântului, daca vrei. Pe planeta noastra, în schimb, auzim tot ceea ce este în jurul nostru. Oamenii, animalele, plantele, planeta ca întreg. "Auzim" energia. Când se naste un copil, perechea data de Dumnezeu lui sau ei e localizata si, daca s-a nascut deja, cele doua familii se muta una lânga cealalta, astfel încât cei doi sa poata creste împreuna."

Go to Paris 2. Have a baby, maybe two 3. Fall in love Brett Bohlinger seems to have it all: a plum job, a spacious loft, an irresistibly handsome boyfriend. All in all, a charmed life. That is, until her beloved mother passes away, leaving behind a will with one big stipulation: In order to receive her inheritance, Brett must first complete the life list of goals she’d written when she was a naïve girl of fourteen. Grief-stricken, Brett can barely make sense of her mother’s decision—her childhood dreams don’t resemble her ambitions at age thirty-four in the slightest. Some seem impossible.
