What does an old soul, caught in a bit of a different world means? It came from the farming documentary. Henna : I think we were born in the wrong century because we love feeding cows and taking care of those sheep. (and then she laughs) Jane: That is what I always say. I think, like you know, how when someone says they’re an ‘old soul’? Henna: Yeah. Jane: Caught in a bit of a different world. I think Jane was asking Henna whether she knew about someone who said that they were and 'old soul" who caught in a bit of a different world or not right? and does 'old soul' mean someone in the past life? Please kindly advise. Many thanks in advance.
