Stephan Schäfer – Everything Is Fine Right Now
A small cut on his finger – and just hours later, the narrator’s life hangs by a transparent tube. He overcomes sepsis, but this brush with mortality brings a new question into his life: If everything can change in an instant – why do we live as if we had infinite time and constantly put everything off until later? After his recovery, he begins looking at life in a new way. He becomes a collector of life’s moments. In love, family, friendship and nature, he searches for meaningful experiences, even in seeming trivialities – and discovers that the most touching stories often await us in the most unexpected moments. Everything Is Fine Right Now by Stephan Schäfer (“25 Last Summers”) is a story of how one second changes everything – and the moments that mean everything. It is a comforting, heartening book about the art of living in the here and now and finding joy in the everyday. Host: Gisela Steinhauer
