Breast Cancer Quotes & Inspiration
The Guest House – Rumi
One of the Silver Linings that came out of my experience with FBC (f-bomb breast cancer for new readers) was a newfound love of poetry. Prior to FBC, my mind never had the patience (or the confidence!) to read poetry. Basically, I didn’t get it. Or I didn’t think that I got it. Or I… Continue reading The Guest House – Rumi
