A soulfull thought

How much is a soul worth? If you can't sell yours, what would you offer for your son's, or daughter's, or even your grandchild's?

And what would you do with a soul anyway?

Can they be collected, kept in jars, or behind glass on walls? If we own them will they love us, adore us, make us feel good?

Perhaps they can be traded like glowing Pokemon cards. Upgraded like computer programs. Refurbished like old cars. Can old souls be classic?

Is it ethical to lure a soul away with candy, or shoes, a movie, or even freedom?

Are there good souls -- and bad souls? Where do they come from? Do they have color and class? Bulk or shape? If a soul spoke to you would it have an accent, or even speak in a language you understood?

Are they each one unique like snowflakes in the wind? Or all the same like pulses of electricity pulsing through the conduits of life? Dropped back into their beginnings are they only one?

What would you give for a soul?
