By Paulo Coelho
The heart never suffers
when it goes in search of its dream,
because every moment of the search
is a step towards encountering
God and Eternity.

Yes, Every path has it’s mountain.
I was happy to go up to the top of the mountain.
Finally, I realized it is not a mountain but a river
what happen to me?
The heart EVER suffers
when it goes in search of TRUE LOVE,
BUT every moment of the search
is a step towards encountering
TRUE LOVE, dear Paulo.
I agree with you Jessica…bu suffering our hearts become stronger …we forget about the suffering on he road but what is the most important is when we feel connected with God …only in that way way we can reach our dream…

in our every dream, God is the only key to achieve it…..
he is always helping us to find our destiny….
(translated from Norwegian)
Dear Paulo, it is true that
when you draw the bow,
you should consentrate
on the target,
it only exists when the archer exists.
When the arrow has gone
you must know
its intention
because it never turns around
and will not come back.
When you follow the arrows path to the target
you must feel
the wind,
and it will make you shake.
When you hit the target,
you shall gather those who
sing
tell stories
take pleasure in life
to celebrate
before you practice and repeat.
But Paulo
if you fail to hit the target,
you must consentrate,
make at clean shot the next time,
make sure the target woun’t be destroyed
before you finally get to it.
‘..The dream of the Heart is….God and Eternity…’
But, I think heart suffers all the Way because of ..Loneliness.

When we put the trust in God, and we surrender to suffering, to pain, there comes the moment when the pain is taken away and the only thing that is left is this blessing of God’s love.

Its only us they see the suffering /lessons ,mistakes as you know God doesnt see it that way – the heart is made of love ..and as that saying goes – What doesnt kill us makes us stronger and he will only give us what we can handle ,like that verse about the footprints ..God was carrying us when we only seen one set of footprints so we are never alone ..blessings Tania
I think that heart doesnt suffer.Sometimes it feels like it suffers and that its hurt…but then after some time you realize that that wasnt suffering.Its just something that you have to experience to be able to grow.
Every path has its mountains…it may be difficult for one to climb, he may fall, he may get hurt, he may bleed..but when he dreams to climb the mountain and finally achieves it, he knows that he is in absolute happiness..he has found who he is..he has achieved his soul’s dream..and the difficulties, which he will have already fought against successfully, just make the climbing even more worth it..and now the heart is drinking water from the blueest river of all…
You are so right, Paulo!
Love
The heart never suffers because it is full of hope. Though sometimes the mind might have second thoughts the heart is always determined.
