Truthiness
Now, hear me out. I believe that fundamentally, a healthy soul is eternal. However, as I do every morning, my mind races in circles as a thought occurred to me. Our modern-day understanding of time is different; we have physics and pop culture telling us that time is a concept that can be manipulated, at least conceptually. I was thinking this morning about souls and the afterlife, and what constitutes a soul. What would a powerful, healthy, or wealthy soul, whichever way you want to conceptualize it, compare to a weak, sickly, or poor soul? What is a soul, and how does one assess it?
Some belief systems postulate that it's one's actions, deeds, or works. What if the value or worth in a soul is the memories and impressions you leave and make upon others? What if that is what constitutes a soul and an afterlife? The memories and impact you leave behind on those who remember you? I don't know; this is just a morning coffee thought. It tends to contradict the whole 'eternal soul ideology' that most spiritualism teaches.
