Ordeals etch you into a person of heart and soul

Dr. Joseph Langen opens yesterday's column in The Daily News with a quote from Thomas Moore's award-winning book, Dark Nights of the Soul: A Guide to Finding Your Way Through Life’s Ordeals: "Your dark night is your invitation to become a person of heart and soul.”

In this piece, "Navigating the dark night of the soul", Langen draws on Moore's observations before giving readers five "life lab lessons" to help navigate periods of a dark night.
