telling stories


 Those who do not have power over the story that dominates their lives, the power to retell it, rethink it, deconstruct it, joke about it, and change it as times change, truly are powerless, because they cannot think new thoughts.
  —Salman Rushdie



The Artist's Letter Rack William Michael Harnett,1879

  2. Love the quote by Rushdie. Isn't this the goal of living in awareness? Sounds easy, it's not. But worth the effort.
