 | very encouraging and interesting spiritual account Jan 8, 1998 |
| Sheila Cassidy's intent in writing this book was to discuss what draws people to work with dying patients, which she does. However much of the book is self-revelation, as she explores her own messy, misdirected spiritual path, sincere and devout, but frequently meeting failure, as in her attempt to become a nun. She seems very well suited to hospice work, and seems pretty honest about her own character flaws. Amazingly, I found myself feeling quite cheerful while reading her book. How nice to read about the spiritual strugglings of another, and how encouraging to see that she has attained a depth of spirituality many people never reach, in spite of all her flaws. There's hope for the rest of us who sincerely want to live a spiritual life, but could never emulate the self-sacrifice of a Mother Teresa. | | | Write your own review about Sharing the Darkness: The Spirituality of Caring
