The Alchemist- Paulo Coelho

Every person in this world has a destiny. Not everyone seeks it. Most of us don't realise that the world, the omens are signalling us to pursue our destiny. However, those of us who do, discover a lot more than our treasure. We discover ourself, the true power we have. We discover the power of our soul. Afterall, we are a part of this world, a part of Creation. Our soul is a part of the Soul of the World. The protagonist is no exception. However, he took a risk to find his destiny. He journeyed into the unknown. But there was one thing different about him. He understood the universal language of the world. He interpreted the omens and signs. In doing so, he found much more than his destiny. He learnt to understand his heart and so he found his treasure.
'The Alchemist' is a story of magic, omens, love and God. The book expressed many truths of this world. Although I myself am an atheist, I would say that I enjoyed the book.
Above all, this story tells us that we look for our destiny, our tresure all over the world while it is somewhere really close by, just out of sight.
