I agree a soul has 'nothing to do with religion' - certainly not any PARTICULAR one, as otherwise, all other souls who didn't have a particular belief would apparently be damned, according to some zealots and nasty extremists.
II also believe it is our 'essence', and an individual indestructive entity that 'lives' on in a form I'm not sure of, but I hope a better and more enlightened existence than it experiences in life's human (or maybe other animal) forms.
Excellent views on the theme.
Best wishes, Ray.

I love her artwork. This pic is amazing as are the words you wrote as to the soul and what that means. I entered it too and this puts mine to shame. Great work...

The physical body is the vehicle. The soul is the driver. This is very well written with a smooth flow of words, making for a very good read. Good luck in your contest.

There are many opinions about the role of soul. Your essay expresses clearly your views on the subject. I have different views like soul is immortal and souls are all same. Nevertheless, I enjoyed reading your essay. Best of luck to you in the contest.

Comment from DonandVicki
The only issue that I have is this being classified as fiction. I suppose you could go either way with it ,however I have always believed ed the soul to be non-fiction.

Hi DonandVick, Thanks for your review and excellent rating for my soul piece. I hadn't thought of a soul being fiction or non fiction but just is. good point to ponder. Cheers for a great day
Comment from Scarbrems
I thought this was quite beautiful and poetic, even though it is prose. Lovely writing. Only one nit. 'Oppresion' - 'Oppression'. Good luck in the contest

Comment from RPSaxena
Dear Friend,
The body and soul have been intermingled here. As a matter of fact, they are poles apart by nature. The former leads us to materialistic world and its bad side-effects while the latter always tries to take us to the spiritualistic and virtuous life. We find all kinds of evils in the world because we often remain oblivious to our soul. Hence, let's follow our soul and each of us must be able to say: 'I am my soul.'
"The soul is our teacher,...........through our unique existence." Upon death our soul gets released into infinity. It's my opinion.
Good Luck!

Comment from PoemsOfDD
This is a good entry into the Soul Writer writing prompt contest. Your piece reads clearly and offers a very interesting theory as to who we are and how we operate through our soul. If only everyone had such a realization it may bring more harmony to this world. I enjoyed reading this most thought provoking piece.

Comment from Mick-ster
I like the view point that the soul is separate from religions but I don't know if I believe in souls myself. I think people have a sort of energy to them and the energy we put out into the world will eventually come back to us in some way. I don't know if I am really supposed to share my view or just write a review.

Hi Mick-ster, Of course you can share your view and I also thank you for your review and comments. The energy is the soul too. Many Cheers for a good day
Comment from Sambangi
First, I liked the title "I'm my soul". It is a fact. The definition of soul slightly varies from religion to religion, but basically it describes who I'm. Body may die but soul doesn't have death, fire can not burn it. Very well written piece. All the best
