Souls are free creatures, trapped in structures called bodies. Souls are closely connected to God. As our Creator has made souls first, then the bodies. Souls are forever.
Whenever we are sad and the sufferings of life make us realize that we are helpless, then we need to connect our souls with our Creator. Its a harsh reality that in this temporary world the souls are trapped inside the bodies and they want to be free someday. More pure and noble souls are more uncomfortable in this temporary world and they are in search of eternal peace. But by doing good deeds and connecting our souls with the God, we will have peace in this world too. You must have good people remain satisfied and peaceful, even after having sufferings and tragedies in life, because they the real meaning of life.
