”Själen är den oförstörbara världens spegel” – Gottfried Wilhelm von Leibniz.
Does every human being have a soul? Back in time, the people that lived then did not believe that every human had a soul, which made the humans none equal to each other. Today it is different; today every human is equal, either they are black or white, Christians or Muslim. I believe that every human being have a soul. What does the soul do? Does the soul reflect our feeling, thoughts and our acting? Or does the soul just reflect some of it? I believe that the soul reflects our feelings, thoughts and our acting. Not only what we think and how we act. The soul reflects much deeper. Our souls reflect every little thought behind every little action. Our souls do also reflect our view of our selves, where we would like to be and how we would like to be as a person. Maybe the world and all living organism have a soul as well, just like us humans.
Is the world really unbreakable? If we can have a broken heart without showing it cannot the world and the souls be broken without us seeing it as well? We do not always need to see things that exist; we cannot see feelings and all the souls and not even the whole world itself. But we still believe in those things, believe that those things exist. I think that the world can be broken. We are just too blind to see it. We are to blind too se a lot of things, there is a lot of things that we are missing.
So, is the soul the mirror to the world? Back in time, people maybe thought that the nobility where the mirror to the world, that the nobility way of behave where a good way and that they reflect how the world where; good, big, and noble. We can also think in another direction from today, this we can relate to what I have written further up on this page. If we gather together every single soul in this world, do we then have a big soul that is the soul of the world? And then, are this big soul the mirror to the feelings and thoughts of the world? We will never have an answer to this. I believe that this can be the true, that the souls of ours actually are the mirror to the world.
Maybe it is just me that thinks that this universe is bigger than it actually is. That it is me having to big thoughts about the world and our lives. We may not even have a soul and the world may not even be a world, this could be nothing but it can also be everything.

I would love that you guys wrote some of your thoughts about this. Feel free to discuss about the soul and the world. Thank you for reading my text.
/ Linnéa.
Good work Linnéa!
I don't really know what more to write than that I totally agree with you, because as you said there is a lot of things we believe in, but we can't see them, so I think we have a soul too even if it isn't visible. Some people believe in God, but we can't see God, some people believe in spirits, angels and a lot of things that we can't see, but even if we can't see the things it won't make us stop believing in it.
sorry, forgot to write my name on the comment!
Thank you Alexandra!
I think it's rather fascinating that we humans can believe so strongly in something we can't see or physical touch and, as you have written, still believe in their existance.
Yes it really is! I mean I believe in guardian angels which I can't see or feel physical, but in some way I can feel that I have them around me! :)
It's pretty amazing. Maybe all of this are just in our own mind, that we are fooling ourselves with feeling different things and believing in someting that we will never know whether they existe or not. I'm just start going crazy while thinking about all that we think existe that maybe not existe and that we never will have an answer off. Or the chance of having the answer is not big. You may have the answer when you are dead and then you can't tell any one else, and maybe you will get disappointed over the answer. So, maybe all of this are just here so that we can go crazy while being in life?
Yes, that's true. I think just as you that we will find out if those things we think exist do exist when we die. However, there is one person I think that all should believe in, that we actually can see physical and that is ourself! If we don't believe in ourself then we can't rise our self-confidence and be stronger and improve things with ourself. :)
well said. We won't lose anything by believing in things, and we should absolutely believe in ourselves as you said! :)
This is a very good article Linnéa!! :)
I totally agree with Alexandra on this one, just because we can't see things we believe in doesn't meen they doesn't exist. I belive that we have a soul and for the same reasons that you do Linnéa!
A very good job! :)
Thank you Hedvig! :)
Linnea,
that is a very nice article!

I think that our souls can somehow be compatible with the world, if you get what I'm trying to say. We just initially 'feel' some sort of connection with the world surrounding it.
And yes -- we are blind. Just like oxen following the herd we live losing ourselves in this busy world. You might be right - it may be broken. And every day this flaw can become bigger and bigger. However, many people see it just the way you do.
So maybe not everything is lost...? :)
Thank you kamila!
I think as you, that we can feel some sort of connection with the surrounding.
I don't think everything is lost. Just that we're missing things, that there are things we can't see even if we want it. But there are a lot of things we actually can see and that we take care of. If the world is broken, maybe we can fix it by not losing ourseves in this busy world. We can do things we enjoy doing and be a good person :)
Good web with cool info. Thanks.
