The Alchemist

 

“The closer one gets to realizing his destiny, the more that destiny becomes his true reason for being.”

Paulo Coelho, The Alchemist

My girlfriend and I were talking the other day about our lives and this new chapter, as we have launched our children. I mentioned my favorite book of all time, The Alchemist, a story about a young boy’s journey through life and the lessons learned along the way. The conversation inspired me to pick the book up, yet again and revisit the story.

No matter how often I read it, I always feel as if I come away enlightened. So as I look to the year ahead and the next chapter, I do so knowing that each day brings me closer to my purpose. It is the journey, that is the joy of being alive.
