What I have noticed about this life is God gives you the inspiration at the perfect moment, at the time when you need it most. For example, Rain has been a celebrity for more than ten years but I only got to know about him at this point when I just lost focus on life. It's really true then, that when you are at the point of giving up your dream, God sends someone or something to bring you back on track.
It was more than twelve years ago that I encountered a book entitled "The Alchemist". It was owned by my cousin and he recommended that it was a good book to read. I read the prologue and I was touched by it, especially the last few lines. I wanted to read more of it.
However, I was only 13 years old at that time and I didn't have money to buy my own copy. So I photocopied every single page of the book! Thankfully, its author Paulo Coelho doesn't mind getting his books pirated. :) Now, even if we already have an original copy of the book, I decided to keep this pirated one. In it, I have already highlighted quotes that are important to me.
This last paragraph from the prologue had me interested in The Alchemist. |
Persistent; willing to study things deeply... |
To have no fear of failure... |
My heart is alive. :) |
Not to be impatient... |
