The Alchemist...

There are only two kind of people in this world..... One who has never read this book and the other who has read it zillion times :) And I belong to the second category ...

So, what makes this book so special? The simplistic thoughts and the inspiring wisdom behind it is probably the winning element. If you ever have raising doubts on your destiny or capabilities, then this one is your medicine. The story about a shepherd on his journey and spiritual quest to achieve his dreams will truly touch your heart and soul. However , this post is not a review blog .... I just want to share some of the many beautiful thoughts that I keep coming across everytime I read this beauty.
 
“when you really want something, the whole universe conspires in helping you to achieve it.”
 
“The secret of life, though, is to fall seven times and to get up eight times.”
 
“The simple things are also the most extraordinary things, and only the wise can see them.”
 
“Don't give in to your fears. If you do, you won't be able to talk to your heart.”
 
“When we strive to become better than we are, everything around us becomes better, too.”
 
“If you start by promising what you don't even have yet, you'll lose your desire to work towards getting it.”
 
“You will never be able to escape from your heart. So it's better to listen to what it has to say.” 
 
“But if you believe yourself worthy of the thing you fought so hard to get, then you become an instrument of God, you help the Soul of the World, and you understand why you are here.” 
 
“Before a dream is realized, the Soul of the World tests everything that was learned along the way. It does this not because it is evil, but so that we can, in addition to realizing our dreams, master the lessons we’ve learned as we’ve moved toward that dream.”
 
“When you possess great treasures within you and try to tell others of them, seldom are you believed.” 
 
“I have inside me the winds, the deserts, the oceans, the stars, and everything created in the universe. We were all made by the same hand, and we have the same soul.” 
 
“Never stop dreaming.” 

Stay Positive and take care :)
