" This is my second reading of Care of the Soul and probably not the last. Everyday life includes a fair amount of personal and societal distress, which Moore illuminates in part by using myths. He believes that, in general, whatever emotional issues raise themselves, a person should pay attention and try to gain self-knowledge from them, rather than medicating them away. All aspects of life have a shadow side which, if acknowledged and understood, deepens one's appreciation of self and others. As a person who is not deeply introspective, I find this book tough sledding sometimes, and the process of self-discovery requires commitment and work. I expect to revisit this book through the years. "
