Rachel Naomi Remen Quotes

For Many Years Now I Have Listened To The Stories Of People With Cancer And Other Life-threatening Illnesses As Their Counselor. From Them I Have Learned How To Enjoy The Minute Particulars Of Life Once Again, The Grace Of A Hot Cup Of Coffee, The Presence Of A Friend, The Blessing Of Having A New Cake Of Soap Or An Hour Without Pain. Such Humble Experience Is The Stuff That Many Of The Very Best Stories Are Made Of. If We Think We Have No Stories It Is Because We Have Not Paid Enough Attention To Our Lives. Most Of Us Live Lives That Are Far Richer And More Meaningful Than We Appreciate.
