This is the kind of post that I find hard to respond to just in words, as it opens up so many possible threads I don't know where to start! Useful reflections on both "what does 'soul' mean?" and "what are people talking about when they say 'soul'?" And then, indeed, what makes you feel that your heart is coming alive? Useful to reflect on the negation here, as you do. And from there onwards … what more important, significant, and deep topics are there than love and self-knowledge? But what to say, beyond that? You've made some good inroads. I'd love us to help "ourselves and other" to find more, express more, share more on these topics.
This really resonates with me. Over the years I have come to feel that you can do everything "by the book" to live a responsible and sustainable life but in truth I need to follow my intuition as to what is the right path for me to follow. This opens up space for personal expression, experimentation and creativity, as well as more joy and hope.
