being lebanese and seeing your love for one of the best authors ever i feel proud, i feel humble, i feel glorified with my origin and decent.

I was never a reading person but i always had this thing about reading a\ book and finishing it in a day. and thats how it all started
you had just released 11 min and i was always told the alchamist is the masterpiece read it first. So i did i read them both. I was swept off my feet with surprise and shock ( i really shocked myself) i never thought i would go through a book with so much interest. and i always have ever since everbook you publish.

thank you for being you.

Words of Khalil Gibran are so powerful and precious because they are hymn to love, they are love itself, they are treasure for humanity !

Paulo thank you again for reminding us !

Older now, I can’t imagine not living in such a world, but it comes from within me, not what is around me.

Not that I am able to do so, but because I let That Which Is Able to do so through me.

With Khalil Gibran’s work I met in 1987 when it was translated in croatian language and he became my favorite writerand kept that position until I met your work and started to read from Alchemist, The pilgrimage and on, and on.

For these who are discovering his work now my suggestion is not to stop on The Prophet but read all of it.

My favourites are books “A tear and a Smile” and “Mirror of the Soul” but I like them all.

Thank you for your kindness and generosity to remind us of such good writer.

With love,
Luce

In a very positive way does he allow us to reflect and breathe in new hope..

On a cloudy rainy day, I sip hot green tea, curl up on my sofa with 2 authors in arms reach… Kahlil Gibran….and…. Paulo Coelho

Jamais Gibran n’impose. Il ne fait que réveiller les voies qui dorment dans notre cœur et qu’il est possible de réveiller et de suivre dans notre société même bouleversée tout en continuant à vivre comme auparavant avec juste ce regard particulier qui fait que la vie nous apparaît alors gorgés de sens, de possibles et de génie.

Never Gibran imposes. He is only waking the ways which sleep in our heart and that it is possible to wake and to follow in our society even upset while continuing to live as previously just with this particular glance which makes that the life seems to us then filled with sense, with possible and with genius.

What the soul knows is often unknown to the man who has a soul. We are infinitely more than we think.
(Kahlil Gibran’s Letter. October 6, 1915.)

‘The Prophet’, ‘The Garden of the Prophet’, ‘Sound and foam’ and the ‘Broken Wings’, the romantic love for Selma Karami. His drawings are wonderful. A real poet.
Love,

« (…) Qu’il y ait des espaces dans votre entente. Que les vents des cieux puissent danser entre vous. Aimez-vous, l’un l’autre, mais ne faites pas de l’amour un carcan: Qu’il soit plutôt mer mouvante entre les rives de vos âmes. Remplissez, chacun, la coupe de l’autre, mais ne buvez pas à la même. Donnez-vous l’un à l’autre de votre pain, mais ne partagez pas le même morceau. Chantez et dansez ensemble, et soyez joyeux, mais que chacun demeure isolé, Comme sont isolées les cordes du luth, bien que frémissantes de la même musique. Donnez vos cœurs, mais pas à la garde de l’autre, Car vos cœurs, seule la main de Dieu peut les contenir. Et dressez-vous ensemble, mais pas trop près l’un de l’autre : car les piliers du temple se dressent séparément, Et le chêne et le cyprès ne peuvent croître dans leur ombre mutuelle. »

” (…) That there are spaces in your agreement. That the winds of heavens can dance between you. Like(love) each other, each other, but do not make love a yoke: whether it is rather unstable sea between the banks of your souls. Fill(perform), each, the cup(cutting) of the other one, but do not drink to the same. Give yourselves one to another of your bread, but do not share the same piece.
Sing and dance together, and be joyful, but that each remains isolated, As are isolated the ropes of the lute, although quivering of the same music. Give your hearts, but not to the guarding of the other one, Because your hearts, only the hand of God can contain them
And raise yourselves(draw up yourselves) together, but not too much near one of the other one: because the pillars of the temple raise themselves(draw up themselves) separately, And the oak and the cypress cannot grow in their mutual shadow. “
