Quest of life by Nephesh (soul)
A quest of a soul, a journey, an exploration, sometimes a bitter complaint or in-depth admiration and all in between. It is all here in this booklet inspired by Life.
What is a soul?
A strange and fascinating being a soul is. A mystery since our existence. However, another name for it is man or woman, a living creature. A consciousness in a body that is called human. A personality with free will, feelings and ratio. It can suffer, be happy, love, hate, reject, comfort, live and die. Say no to God. All is possible.
This poetry evolves from life. The Tree of life is the Poet Tree. The Tree of life is also part of death. Or rather starts with death. Christ is the Tree of Life, died on it to give life. Life giver.
