Did you ever have a soul? Do you have one now? When you look
in the mirror can you see it?
Despite some positive signs otherwise, a cynic might say
that America seems on its way to becoming a soulless country. Religion is
failing its faithful. Religion is becoming politics. Shopping is replacing soul
searching. The self is asserting its importance over its place in the web of
human relationships. We live in the virtual reality of our screens. We find our
humanity in our fears and anxieties. We hide in the darkness of addiction and
mistrust. We wouldn’t recognize truth if we were sitting in its lap.
Still, good is all around, and if we look hard enough we can
see that the best of humanity comes from the wisdom of the soul.
