Our life is a constant journey, from birth to death. The landscape changes, the people change, our needs change, but the train keeps moving. Life is the train, not the station.

When faced with a loss, it is no use trying to recover what has gone. On the other hand, a great space has been opened up in your life - there it lies, empty, waiting to be filled with something new. At the moment of one's loss, contradictory as this might seem, one is being given a large slice of freedom.

We are told from childhood onward that everything we want to do is impossible. We grow up with this idea, and as the years accumulate, so too do the layers of prejudice, fear and guilt. There comes a time when our personal calling is so deeply buried in our soul as to be invisible. But know that it's still there.
Paulo Coelho
Image
The wise men understood that this natural world is only an image and a copy of paradise. The existence of this world is simply a guarantee that there exists a world that is perfect. God created the world so that, through its visible objects, men could understand his spiritual teachings and the marvels of his wisdom.
Paulo Coelho

Love is a trap. When it appears, we see only its light, not its shadows.
Paulo Coelho
Image
And to those who believe that adventures are i say try routine: it kills you far more quickly.
Paulo Coelho
Image
That is a question we cannot answer before, or even during, the trials. Only when we have overcome them do we understand why they were there.
Paulo Coelho
Image
A Warrior often loses heart.
Paulo Coelho

Perhaps love makes us grow old before our time and makes us young again when youth has passed.
Paulo Coelho

Working from nine till five every day at something that gives you no pleasure just so that, after thirty years, you can retire.
Paulo Coelho
Image
When I had nothing more to lose, I was given everything. When I ceased to be who I am, I found myself. When I experienced humiliation and yet kept on walking, I understood that I was free to choose my destiny.
Paulo Coelho
