Sinopsis

Prisms: Reflections on the Journey We Call Lifeásummarizes a lifetime of observing, engaging, and exploring why we are here, in service to what, and what life asks of us.ááThese eleven essays, all written recently, examine how we understand ourselves, and often we have to reframe that understanding, the nature and gift of comedy, the imagination, desire, as well as our encounters with narcissism, and aging.ááJames Hollis, Ph.D., a Jungian Analyst in Washington, D.C., explores the roadblocks we encounter and our on-going challenge to live our brief journey with as much courage, insight, and resolve as we can bring to the table.Table of Contents:1.
