This is Henri Nouwen's "secret journal." It was written during the most difficult period of his life, when he suddenly lost his self-esteem, his energy to live and work, his sense of being loved, even his hope in God. Although he experienced excruciating anguish and despair, he was still able to keep a journal in which he wrote a spiritual imperative to himself each day that emerged from his conversations with friends and supporters.
It was hard to understand all that Noewen writes about, but he is writing about things that are practically impossible to express. Glimmers of understanding do shine through. My goal is to remember some of the topics that Noewen writes about such as rejection and the negative thinking that can get bigger and bigger after perceived rejection and the discipline to not let that happen.
