Today was a good day, it is a nice feeling when you go to see family that you haven't seen for long or even ones that you see regulary...Anyways as a request from one of the bloggers I will post more on the story of the alchemist but I highlt recommand that one reads the whole book I can't start from the beginning but what it is about is a boy who follows his destiny hoping to find a treasure and for those who are thinking of reading it I will not ruin the ending!
This is the story of a shepherd boy who dreams of travelling the world to seek a treasure he had known about from a dreams he had and was confirmed bu a gypsy and an old man.He travels from his home, Spain, to Tangiers and from there to the Egyptian desert where he meets Fatima the woman he loved. And it is where a fateful encounter with the alchemist awaits him.
Conti...
'Fatima went back to her tent, and, when daylight came, she went out to do the chores she had done for years. But everything had changed. The boy was no longer at the oasis, and the oasis would never again have the same meaning it had had only yesterday. It would no longer be a place with fifty thousands palm tree and three hundred wells, where the pilgrims arrived, relieved at the end of their long journeys. From that day on, the oasis would be an empty place for her. From that day on, it was the desert that would be important. She would look to it every day, and would try to guess which start the boy was following in search of his treasure. She would have to send her kisses on the wind, hoping that the wind would touch the boy's face, and would tell him that she was alive. That she was waiting for him, a woman awaiting a courageous man in search of his treasure. From that day on, the desert would represent only one thing to her: the hope fpr his return.
