what i'm reading.



recently i finished reading the alchemist by paul cohelo. the alchemist is a magical story about a young boy's journey to find his treasure. this book unfolds the intricacies and beauty in the journey of understanding your true authentic self and allowing what dreams you think up along the way evolve into more than just thoughts. this book is a beautiful story of determination and defeat and is incredibly inspiring. below are some of my favorite quotes from the book. enjoy!

"it's the possibility of having a dream come true that makes life interesting."

"it's the simple things in life that are the most extraordinary; only wise men are able to understand them."

"when each day is the same as the next, it's because people fail to recognize the good things that happen in their lives every day that the sun rises."

" if God leads the sheep so well, he will also lead man."

" never stop dreaming...follow the omens."

" when you want something all the universe conspires to help you achieve it."

" making a decision is only the beginning of things. when someone makes a decision, he is really diving into a strong current that will carry him to places he had never dreamed of when he first made the decision."

" intuition is really a sudden immersion of the soul into the universal current of life."

" once you get into the desert, there's no going back, you have to worry only about the best way of moving forward. the rest is up to God, including danger."
