SHADOW:
The dark figure cast upon a surface by a body intercepting the rays from a source of light!.

Figuratively speaking, yes!. A shadow is also "an inseparable companion or follower" which could be construed as a 'soul'!.

I think you've put WAY too much effort into sounding 'philosophically pretty' - which really irritates me!. Some philosophical questions are raw and ugly, but mean something!. And that's what counts!.

Philosophically speaking, it COULD be!. Anything could be!. Absolutely anything!. I'm sitting here drinking a cup of coffee!. The cup could be a reflection of my soul!. The coffee could be!. The mixture of coffee and sugar and cup could be!. Similarly, my liking of coffee could be a reflection of my soul!. The fact that I am drinking coffee at 10!.13 in the morning could be a reflection of my soul!. A thousand million billion variables all clustered together (which resulted in me drinking coffee with sugar in a polka dot mug at 10!.13 in the morning after having done my French homework etc, etc, etc) could be a reflection of my soul!. I could have no soul, and wouldn't that be a b***h!?

There is no POSSIBLE way we can ever truly know what our soul is - so why are you even thinking about the reflection of our soul!? There could be an imprint of our soul, but it's definitely - to me - in no way physical!. When I'm locked in a dark room with no windows and no light whatsoever, I don't have a shadow!. Does that mean that at that point in time I have no soul!? Or simply no mirror!?

The shadow can be explained using a mixture of physics and maths and other stuff that I don't understand!. The soul is something beautifully intricate and complex and not related to anything we could ever possibly know or understand!. But I'll be off now - I've got to go and ponder whether when I drop a pebble in a puddle the ripples created are the physical manifestation of the meaning of life (aka I've got to get more coffee)!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
