Dark Nights of the Soul
By Thomas Moore

I did an earlier post on this wonderful book, which I am currently reading. This is a book written for anyone you know going through a major life crisis, including yourself.

"This is the secret: Even if you can't be liberated physically, you can still emerge with self-possession, vitality, and character. You can do this with divorce, the death of a child, a serious illness, or a failure in creativity. You can survive morally even if you die physically."
