If you carry someone else's fears and live by someone else's values, you may find that you have lived their lives.
Rachel Naomi Remen
In the silence of listening, you can know yourself in everyone, the unseen singing softly to itself and to you.

The wisdom in the story of the most educated and powerful person is often not greater than the wisdom in the story of a child, and the life of a child can teach us as much as the life of a sage.

Goose bumps happen when your soul is close to you, breathing lightly on the back of your neck, and wakes you up.

God's presence. . . is an inner experience that never changes. It's a relationship that's there all the time, even when we're not paying attention to it. Perhaps the Infinite holds us to Itself in the same way the earth does. Like gravity, if it ever stopped we would know it instantly. But it never does.

Rachel Naomi Remen
Life is as complex as we are. Sometimes our vulnerability is our strength, our fear develops our courage, and our woundedness is the road to our integrity. It is not an either/or world.
Rachel Naomi Remen
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
At the deepest level, the creative process and the healing process arise from a single source. When you are an artist, you are a healer a wordless trust of the same mystery is the foundation of your work and its integrity.

Just Listen an excerpt
Rachel Naomi Remen
Anger is just a demand for change, a passionate wish for things to be different.
Rachel Naomi Remen
When you listen generously to people they can hear the truth in themselves, often for the first time.
Rachel Naomi Remen
Big messages come in small packages. All it may take to restore someone's trust in life may be returning a lost earring or a dropped glove.

Cancer changes your whole life.

When we pray, we don't change the world, we change ourselves.
