Today’s Question by Aart Hilal

by Paulo Coelho on July 18, 2008

In the documentation about you that I had at my disposal I have identified all the elements of a successful novel. Haven’t you thought about writing an autobiographical book? The experiences you’ve had easily surpass fiction.

All my books are somehow biographical, but in a methaporical way. The best way to understand myself is by using images to dive deep in my own unknown sea.

a message to all…

Men have great fear
The fear to be truth to themselves
Deep down we are all the same
But the magic happens
In the different ways we express

Please don’t fear
Don’t fear the warm of your body
the blush on your face
the drop of your heart
or the love that you got.

For all those things are meant
to tell us that we are all human.

Those written images serve as a connection between human hearts, as we see them in our daily life. Then we understand that deep down we are all the same with our own unknown oceans to discover.

Sr Paulo, me habia dado cuenta de esto cuando lei por vez primera su libro “el peregrino” ahi pude notar cierta similitud entre sus anecdotas con respecto a otros de sus libros; solo que en los otros libros usted las profundiza segun su personaje. Usted tiene la capacidad de ver ese “extra” en lo cotidiano, haciendo de lo ordinario algo extraordinario. Gracias.
