Can you define someone's soul in less than 10 words?

[Cevadeva]

It would be hard to describe a soul in less then 10 words. Unless you're talking about the personality of the person, then maybe. But a soul, you would need to clarify what you're referring to.  

[SchizoSpazz]

body and spirit united.
(ok. that's what they taught us in church. you be the critic)  

[anomonus]

your feelings, emotians, belifs, and heart heart

6 words, 44 letters (and symbles)  

[DJ_Rial]

The soul is you. It may not be measured yet, but when you die, I believe that the soul/spirit leaves your body. Ever read books where someone dies, but doesn't really and sees their body. That's the soul, in my belief.

 

[Breaking The Skyline]

It depends on what you mean by soul.  

[Zoe_Tellerman]

It tasted like chocolate... ?  

[Aakosir]

The part of someone that lives forever. That is if you believe what I believe. Reincarnation.  

[King Robert Silvermyst]

Khat, Ka, Ba, Khaibit, Akhu, Sahu, Sekhem, Ab and Ren.

The nine parts of the soul in Kemetic (Ancient Egyptian) and Neo-Kemetic belief.

1. Khat (Kha) – The physical form, the body that could decay after death, the mortal, outward part of the human that could only be preserved by mummification.

2. Ka – The double that lingered on in the tomb inhabiting the body or even statues of the deceased, but was also independent of man and could move, eat and drink at will. (There was both a higher, guardian angel like Ka and lower Ka that came from knowledge learned on earth.)

3. Ba – The human headed bird flitted around in the tomb during the day bringing air and food to the deceased, but traveled with Ra on the Solar Barque during the evenings.

4. Khaibit – The shadow of a man, it could partake of funerary offerings and was able to detach itself from the body and travel at will, though it always was thought to stay near the Ba.

5. Akhu (Akh, Khu, Ikhu) – This was the immortal part, the radiant and shining being that lived on in the Sahu, the intellect, will and intentions of the deceased that transfigured death and ascended to the heavens to live with the gods or the imperishable stars.

6. Sahu – The incorruptible spiritual body of man that could dwell in the heavens, appearing from the physical body after the judgment of the dead was passed (if successful) with all of the mental and spiritual abilities of a living body.

7. Sekhem – This was the incorporeal personification of the life force of man, which lived in heaven with the Akhu, after death.

8. Ab (Ib) – The heart, this was the source of good and evil within a person, the moral awareness and centre of thought that could leave the body at will, and live with the gods after death, or be eaten by Ammut as the final death if it failed to weigh equally against Ma’at.

9. Ren – The true name, a vital part to man on his journey through life and the afterlife, a magical part that could destroy a man if his name was obliterated or could give power of the man if someone knew his Ren – naming ceremonies in Egypt were secret, and a child lived his whole life with a nickname to avoid anyone from learning his true name!

i think a soul is:
what makes you yourself, instead of a bunch of reactions
(thats the 10-word version. i had to alter it from the 12-word one lol xd )
