Well, let's distinguish religion from spirituality. I am Catholic, so religion for me is a way of having discipline and collective worship with persons who share the same mystery.
Paulo CoelhoPeople are afraid to pursue their most important dreams, because they feel that they donโt deserve them, or that theyโll be unable to achieve them. We, their hearts, become fearful just thinking of loved ones who go away forever, or of moments that could have been good but werenโt, or of treasures that might have been found but were forever hidden in the sands. Because, when these things happen, we suffer terribly.
