Do I have a soul?

Yes, Andi, I most certainly do have a soul.
I also refer to my soul as my Self (with a capital S). It is the essence of who I am and the purest part of my self.

My Self is NOT defined by my personality, my profession, how much money I may or may not have, any diseases or good fortune.
My Self (soul) is my core. It is an energy and is neither created nor destroyed.

The awareness of my Self can be dulled by the thoughts in my mind, and issues from the past.

My Self only manifests itself for the present moment. It is where the purest of joy can eminate.
