Do you ever have concepts 'fade out'? The concept of 'soul' used to be one I used a lot, and now it's kinda dissolved - it's just not an object that shows up a lot in my processing. Similarly, 'love' has faded out for me, replaced by something like 'looking' or 'self-dissolution'
I mean that 'soul' felt like it corresponded to Definitely A Thing, almost like an object, in a similar way I think the word 'chair' corresponds to the thing I'm sitting in. Getting rid of soul as a function meant that it stopped feeling useful for the reasoning I was tryin to do

Like, when I was religious I believed in Definitely Real Theological Terms - they were words that created a form that I used to handle things, to answer questions, to create patterns. After I lost my faith, stuff like the Hypostatic Union suddenly felt empty, like ghosts.
