Text Quotes
Fear is the friction in all transitions  (Rachel Naomi Remen Quotes) Cancer changes your whole life  (Rachel Naomi Remen Quotes) Everybody is a story  (Rachel Naomi Remen Quotes) Facts bring us to knowledge, but stories lead to wisdom  (Rachel Naomi Remen Quotes) Most of us lead far more meaningful lives than we know. Often finding meaning is not about doing things differently; it is about seeing familiar things in new ways.  (Rachel Naomi Remen Quotes) Our listening creates a sanctuary for the homeless parts within another person  (Rachel Naomi Remen Quotes) Every great loss demands that we choose life again. We need to grieve in order to do this. The pain we have not grieved over will always stand between us and life. When we don’t grieve, a part of us becomes caught in the past like Lot’s wife who, because she looked back, was turned into a pillar of salt  (Rachel Naomi Remen Quotes) A shaman is someone who has a wound that will not heal. He sits by the side of the road with his open wound exposed.  (Rachel Naomi Remen Quotes) I think ideas only lead to change for intellectual people; and not even them. What really leads to change is experience. Life itself is the teacher.  (Rachel Naomi Remen Quotes) The way towards freedom from a situation often lies in acceptance of the situation  (Rachel Naomi Remen Quotes) Is it possible to live so defensively that you never get to live at all?  (Rachel Naomi Remen Quotes) Religion is a bridge to the spiritual, but the spiritual lies beyond religion  (Rachel Naomi Remen Quotes) Anger is just a demand for change, a passionate wish for things to be different  (Rachel Naomi Remen Quotes) Life offers its wisdom generously. Everything teaches. Not everyone learns  (Rachel Naomi Remen Quotes) Silence is a place of great power and healing  (Rachel Naomi Remen Quotes) An unanswered question is a fine traveling companion. It sharpens your eye for the road  (Rachel Naomi Remen Quotes) Those who bless and serve life find a place of belonging and strength, a refuge  (Rachel Naomi Remen Quotes) Perhaps the most important thing we ever give each other is our attention  (Rachel Naomi Remen Quotes) Our wounds are our sources of growth  (Rachel Naomi Remen Quotes) When we listen, we offer with our attention an opportunity for wholeness  (Rachel Naomi Remen Quotes) It is not that we have a soul, but that we are a soul  (Rachel Naomi Remen Quotes) Our purpose in life is to grow in wisdom and in love  (Rachel Naomi Remen Quotes) There should be a word that means beginning/end because nothing begins without something dying  (Rachel Naomi Remen Quotes) Belief traps or frees us  (Rachel Naomi Remen Quotes) The willingness to consider possibility requires a tolerance of uncertainty  (Rachel Naomi Remen Quotes) We are all born to be a blessing  (Rachel Naomi Remen Quotes) Our limitations serve, our wounds serve, even our darkness can serve  (Rachel Naomi Remen Quotes) Unexplained pain may sometimes direct our attention to something unacknowledged, something we are afraid to know or feel. Then it holds us to our integrity, claiming the attention we withhold. The thing which calls our attention may be a repressed experience or some unexpressed and important part of who we are. Whatever we have denied may stop us and dam the creative flow of our lives. Avoiding pain, we may linger in the vicinity of our wounds, sometime for many years, gathering the courage to experience them  (Rachel Naomi Remen Quotes) Wisdom comes most easily to those who have the courage to embrace life without judgment and are willing to not know, sometimes for a long time. It requires us to be more fully and simply alive than we have been taught to be. It may require us to suffer. But ultimately we will be more than we were when we began. There is the seed of a greater wholeness in everyone  (Rachel Naomi Remen Quotes) Everyone alive has suffered. It is the wisdom gained from our wounds and from our own experiences of suffering that makes us able to heal. Becoming expert has turned out to be less important than remembering and trusting the wholeness in myself and everyone else. Expertise cures, but wounded people can best be healed by other wounded people. Only other wounded people can understand what is needed, for the healing of suffering is compassion, not expertise  (Rachel Naomi Remen Quotes)
