Imagine life as a video game. At any given moment, you are somewhere, you could be hitting rock bottom, or at the top of the world. The most important thing is that you have been given a character, in other words: YOU EXIST, and the game is not over yet.

Part 1: The human pentachotomy.

Let's get to know the character first. It's a human.. I guess? For the sake of our example, let's say that the human is a composite of five distinct components: Body, Soul, Heart, Mind, and Spirit. I will define them as follows:
The body: is the container which is made of bones flesh and organs, it is the tangible entity that interacts with the physical world.
The psyche: is where your desires, impulses and emotions reside, it is your essence, it is what makes you, you.
The intellect: the faculty of thinking, reasoning, and understanding. We Humans have superior cognitive abilities compared to other creatures.
The character: is what shapes your personality, it is where decision making takes place.somtimes even against reason or natural instinct.
The Spirit: the hardest to define, to me, it's what sets us apart from other creatures, it makes us long to know what's beyond, the metaphysics, ethics, death, our existence, it's like a natural predisposition, unique to humans.
