Summary: Issues of the heart
Comment: The heart has its reasons. We try to explain emotions inadequately. The heart is a mystery. Relationship, emotion, passion can be grasped by the tools of poetry and religion. Soul does not make love a project. In general our thinking has become too mechanized.
The ways of soul are filled with paradox. Jung said the soul is the archetype of life. Emerson said the soul does not advance in a straight line. The soul appears regressive. Soul is attachment, spirit is detachment. Rilke thought each person should protect the solitude of the other. The soul is always complicated. We all have skeletons in out closets and monsters in out hearts. None of us may want to know who we really are. Reading psychology books may be a distraction of attending to the soul!
Every marriage has exterior and interior dimensions. Marriage is a profound stirring of souls. When we idealize the family, we also demonize it. Our secular ideal of family may become excessively personal. A family is a form of community. Families complcate life.
It may be wise to cultivate friendship in an indirect manner. We could deal with our paranoia by placing more value on intuition. True conversation is an interpenetration of worlds. A conversation grows at its own tempo. Some people do not have the patience to get to know each other over time. The soul of relationships is not goal-minded.
The book is pleasant and useful. Discussions of symbolism and mythology run through the chapters.

Summary: Simplicity yet Sensibility Lessens the Chaos of this World
Comment: Only rarely can I claim to have been touched by a tale, a text, a book, even words so hauntingly beautiful and enduring as those of Thomas Moore as expressed in Soul Mates. Moore's writing ensnares you almost as unpredictably as love itself with a literary insight and philosophical exhiliration that is the ultimate journey with an author. You owe it to your spirit, your heart and your intrinsic self to become a cherished and enlightened part of this psychological nourishment. Moore turns everything you wondered, dreamt and felt about the real experience of human relationships into something as clear and precious as air itself. Gently, yet perceptively, he guides you back to the core and the unique and individual thoughts of your very existence. Moore's Soul Mates may even be the closest you can get to the simple truth of taking a single moment in this life for confronting and embracing yourself and everyone around you. Certainly, this is a book that is the perfect expression of the deep, spiritual force working in and out of our lives, making anything at all-even self-love still possible-again and again. Without pretense, heroics or high-minded words on paper, Soul Mates offers us the non-intrusive space to no longer hide our hearts, our souls and emotional performances beneath the glaring lights of a fast-paced, technologically driven world. Soul Mates may be considered by some to be one of the great texts of our time, but most importantly, it remains true to the sense of what it is to be human and humankind in all its guises and manifestations. Touch this book with both hands and let go only when you want to!.
