When people say, when you die your soul will go where it belongs. Why use "my"? Does it mean, when your body dies, you <your soul> go where you belong?

The understanding what the soul is varies almost from person to person.
In my understanding there is no difference between consciousness and the soul. It becomes a little bit difficult to grasp once we consider that there is only one consciousness, all is one and then try to see an individual soul within it. I call a soul a unit of consciousness and a soul is always part of a larger consciousness unit, and does not directly link to source.
The soul or any other consciousness never move, are never within the physical verse. In fact, the soul creates an energy structure, we call spirit and this energy structure will move around the physical realms, and through this energy structure the soul can experience different levels of physicality.
Where the spirit goes after the death of the body is not as strait forward as some like to belief.
