Because there is a force that wants you to realize your Personal Legend; it whets your appetite with a taste of success
Paulo CoelhoThere are moments when tribulations occur in our lives, and we cannot avoid them. But they are there for some reason.
Paulo CoelhoStill, being fragile creatures, humans always try to hide from themselves the certainty that they will die. They do not see that it is death itself that motivates them to do the best things in their lives. They are afraid to step into the dark, afraid of the unknown, and their only way of conquering that fear is to ignore the fact that their days are numbered. They do not see that with an awareness of death, they would be able to be even more daring, to go much further in their daily conquests, because then they would have nothing to lose- for death itself is inevitable.
Paulo CoelhoMiracles occur all around us, signs from God show us the way, angels plead to be heard, but we pay little attention to them.
Paulo CoelhoOther people think exactly the opposite: they surrender themselves without a second thought, hoping to find in passion the solutions to all their problems. They make the other person responsible for their happiness and blame them for their possible unhappiness. They are either euphoric because something marvelous has happened or depressed because something unexpected has just ruined everything.
