“Signs and symbols rule the world, not words nor laws.”
― Confucius

"The soul is looking for signs, looking for messages from that world.
If she is right, if her memories of a world where Beauty rules are not a hallucination, not a fantasy, but the truth, then this world must be here, somewhere nearby.
And he must speak to her - with his soul.
He should tell her what to do, what to do, where to go, where to look for help and protection.
The soul is looking for signs and does not notice that they are talking to it. And they talk to her... Always. The soul is not alone in this world. There are thousands, millions, billions of other souls in this world. And among them there are those who came here not only to undergo their tests. They come to talk...
But you need to be able to hear. You need to be able to listen. You need to be sensitive. When one person talks to another person they exchange information. At a more subtle level, their souls are talking at that very second. They coo like doves - you can't understand the meaning, but you know it's there. But we listen with our minds, not with our hearts. The human mind is always selfish, questions everything, resists.
People push away from each other, although their souls never had time to tell each other about the main thing. And often it is those people whom we push away with particular force who talk to us about what is most important for us to hear..."
