Care of the Soul: A Guide for Cultivating Depth and Sacredness in Everyday Life
by Thomas Moore
by Thomas Moore
Setting this aside for now...
Moving further along ....
While Moore was taking a myth and 'opening it up' I was fine. He seems to have drifted into other speculative and drier areas, also aspects of personality and personalities which don't concern me. I'm skimming more than reading....
==============================================================================
Think I'm 'getting' this book! Moore is taking the ancient myths and reinterpreting them for us in a new and deeply spiritual way! I LIKE! I LIKE! Now I know why my friend, Jane was so keen to get to read this!!!
==============================================================================
Started this long ago... Just pulled it back off the shelf...

...and what are your thoughts? It was once recommended to my mom by her brother who is a priest. I did not read it but looked it over and never gave it another thought.

I did not read it but looked it over and never gave it another thought."I've only just 'dipped' into it in places but ... it's a gentle book so far ... gentle and loving. Reminds of the friend who recommended it. She is the one I always run to when I need a faith-lift or unconditional human affirmation of God's love for me: encouraging, supportive and full of tips which are good for self-care and specifically caring for one's soul. But let me read some more and I'll see if I can give you anything more concrete. ☺
