I remember in Narnia, theres a part which says....
" Extraordinary things happen to extraordinary people. Maybe its a sign that you've got an extraordinary destiny.Something greater than you could have imagined"
And when i read about Paulo's life i see how true those lines are. Probably such extreme encounters and experiences in life made him come up with equally extraordinary novels. But whats even more interesting is that in the midst of his chaotic life there was just one thing firmly planted in his mind , heart and soul....which is the passion to become a world famous writer.
He didnt care if his parents didnt believe in him, or if he was tortured with electric shocks, or thrown into prison, or called weird or psycho . He was led by his dream to be writer and that gave all the power to endure any pain or obstacles. Its so true, how one becomes immune to anything else when the mind is fixed on a dream to follow.
Seriously, if this person called Paulo Coelho didnt realize his dreams, then he would have been just another crazy guy in Brazil no one knew ! But today he is a worldwide phenomenon with 100 million copies of his books sold. So, what made this difference in his life was his passion to be a writer.
Dreams fuels the soul and mind and burns anything that comes in its way . So, dare not only to dream....but also to realize it no matter what and that will make all the difference in our life :)
Its sad that some of us give up so easily merely being afraid of what others say and think about us. Never forget that each person has their right to follow their destiny and what others think has got nothing to do with it.
We've got to always remind ourselves that, the moment we make it...the whole world will look up at you and forget anything of the pass. So NEVER give up on anything you love !!! just keep going...no matter how slow or crazy it might seem.
