Summary: "A Book of Strife in the Form of The Diary of an Old Soul" by George MacDonald is a collection of reflective poetry written in the late 19th century. This work takes the form of a spiritual diary, articulating the internal struggles, contemplations, and prayers of an old soul grappling with faith, doubt, and divine connection. At the start of the diary, we encounter a deeply introspective voice, the narrator, who expresses a longing for renewal and deeper understanding in old age. The first entries reveal his contemplative inquiry into his past actions, an awareness of human frailty, and the hope for a guiding presence in his life. Through a series of poetic verses, he explores themes of faith, the passage of time, personal loss, and the search for truth, balancing between despair and the yearning for enlightenment. The beginning sets a poignant and contemplative tone, inviting readers to reflect on their own spiritual journeys. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
