What is my call?
What is this burning sensation inside of me to be other than what I am? To become what I am?
What is this action that will infiltrate into my soul, where time does not exist and I am not there?
What is this desire that sickens my life until I come to you?
And why have I not followed you?
Why do I not jump into your delicious void?
Maybe it is the longing to hear your voice around me? If I come to you, who shall call me? What shall I live for? What will I aspire towards?
It is a step…
I will pick up the pen and attempt to write. This book that will conjure up my pain and memories and laughter…Mi vida…
Mi llamado es a sanar mi alma herida, trabajando arduamente las secuelas de ser abusada/traicionada, estudiando psicologia, especializandome en abuso para poder ayudar a otras personas como tambien me han tendido la mano. Escribir sobre las experiencias vividas en mi cultura y pais donde se ven abusos de cualquier tipo. Luchando para que existan leyes en mi pais que de verdad ayuden a las victimas y programas para soporte que aún no existen. Sus libros de verdad que dan mucha luz.
My call says break away but i do not hv the courage. My heart yearns for love with no conditions. But my mind is so accustomed to comfort. My calling is to help children and love them regardless of condition. But to reach that calling – i dont know when.

I am dentist. I am forensic odontologist. I am a journalist. I am a writer. And I still do not know who I am. But as time is passing I know one thing: the writing is most acceptable choice for my soul. It relaxing me. I left dentistry. I would like to forget it forever. It is profession full of pain, fear, emotional distance. I was a good dentist. But I have never feel fully happy in dental office. I am happy when I am writing and publishing. When I can see the reaction of people… To hear its words…Positive or negative.. Nevertheless….My ideal call would be to travel, to write, to live in airplanes, airport, hotels, battlefields, and to back at my home for a few days or a month, and again to travel, write, ……

i really don’t know what my call is, maybe to be myself in all circumstances.
No sé cuál es mi llamada, no sé cuál es mi leyenda personal, no me acuerdo de mis sueños, envidio a todas estas personas que saben perfectamente que quieren hacer mientras yo busco algo con lo que ilusionarme, algo que me mueva y llevo así toda mi vida.
My call – I said at five that I would become primeminister ( I dont remember it). Being questioned by my familys Doctor. Today I am not so sure or determined. I see it in different light now, aspects of leadership that I may not be suited for. Allthough I have this drive to “see” people. Often, I connect to people instantly. I allways feel like being in a zone, being there 100%, when speaking with someone.
I love to be part of projects and missions that are society centered. However, my call is to speak, to enlight and inspire for true and good development of humans and of society. For people to see us all as one. To see the face of god in oneself. Being part of godness. To be part of shifts and transitions of the world to choose the sunny side, the good side. My mark is trust, to listen, to see and speak. To formulate and communicate about innovations, communications, relations, human development, growth, prosperity and nature. Some of all those fragile threads of our lives, our world, that are intertwined in a tale of the universe.
My greatest joy is to see someones eyes glow with inspiration, own determination and hope. Knowing that life is continuing to prosper and strive with each and everyone. I also believe that I will write books.
Thank you Mr Coelho for being you, having the courage following your self. The truly eternal form and force of ourselves. The body is our vehicle to experience life, the soul that chip of the universe – god.
I think my call is to be a stepping stone. It sounds horrible, and sometimes it manifests a horrible feeling, but that is only when I become detached from everything higher than me.
What I mean by stepping stone is that it seems that I help people transition from one period in their life to another. This is difficult because it means that a lot of people are in my life and then out. And, it means that their are a lot of people, that without realizing it, are very vampyric in their ways with me; constantly draining.. I’ve been working on knowing when its time to let go, realizing when the rough times people are going through are necessary and that sometimes in trying to help, I’m only enabling a person to remain complacent and not grow as a person..
The hardest times in my life are the ones that made me grow as a person the most. I feel my calling is to help others realize the same..
But, if anyone has any advice on how to not be so affected by this, I’d appreciate it.. My issues with this are that in order to be this for someone I have to put all of myself into it, so that my intuition is in tune with what is happening in this person’s life.. It’s hard to constantly give your entire self only to be reminded that you are human, its hard to have so many people walk out of your life, to hurt you (and sometimes its even harder to understand why someone is the way they are and why they do what they do because then you can’t be angry only sad).. Anyway, I’m rambling now.. Hopefully this all makes sense. My brain tends to have about 30 million levels of thinking and sometimes my thoughts come so quickly that they intertwine with each other, making them hard to convey..
To Mr. Coelho,
Your books have enlightened me during so many rough times in my life, they reminded me of the higher perspective.. Thank you.. You are a huge part of why I am who I am, and I love who I am.

My heart is right now call me to put myself first for the first time in my 55 years of life. To get well inside my body, well inside my mind, well inside my soul. It is the hardest thing I have ever been called to do. I have to focus on me and there is much I see that is not well and needs my love, my attention, my focus, my power, my strength, my action, my truthfulness. I only pray I can get through this call. Daily I arise to look into the mirror at much neglect, daily I work at doing one just one thing I know to do the rest is sent to me through the teachers of this world. My family, those I have met and those I never will. Of which you Paul are one. Thankyou ♥
my call is to Act , and be an actor.Thats it!
My call is to write.
there is nothing new under this sun, said a prophet. But i could not recall the name of that prophet. What is my call? My call has only one reason that is to make God known and manisfested.And this would be fulfilled through a story.I love to write and that is what i will do.
May your dreams come true,
Linda
As I live in Russia ( in Moscow) a really have some influence of my culture on me and from day to day I see a lot of people passing by, who have no time to stop and think a little bit. To see all the beauty of nature and different historical buildings that are really worth seeing. And there’s also an interesting fact that people are never proud of their own city and history and even know nothing about it. Even tourist who come know more than we do. But we spend huge sums of money to go abroad and and try in a week or two see as many museum as possible and take incredible emount of photoes to show friends at home.
So probably my call is to learn as much as I can because life is really incredible thing! I am learning 3 foreing languages( English,German, Spanish), read a lot of books in original (actually for me it is more interesting to read the real thoughts of author than the ready-made translation),cook a lot, teach pupils English and German at school and at free weekends I try to go somewhere abroad and improve my knowledge or just go along the streets feeling the air and atmosphere of my city. And also for me is is a kind of call to show my nearest and dearest all my love and never to upset them.
Thank you for all you’ve done and I hope will do for a lot of years in future.
Best wishes,Russian girl,Valentina.
nice
Mi llamada es…nadie sabe esta necesidad imperiosa, que a veces me desepera, sanar, curar, me desepero cuando veo gente enferma que sufre y nada puedo hacer, no se como, desde chica soñaba que era un hada mágica de una revista…el hada Patricia…amo dar amor, me siento bien haciendo feliz a otro…
Luego amo la fotografía y la naturaleza…siempre sueño viajar por el mundo fotografiando la belleza del universo de Dios…
Hmmm, my heart is always telling me to do things that is right but, honestly, up until now i don’t know what is “MY CALL”. I don’t know what’s my purpose in life. I’m not a nerd, but i feel like I am. I’m not a saint but my heart cries when I see someone crying or dying. I’m not good in writing but I love to read. I love art but I don’t have any talent in painting or drawing. I want to be good in sports but I’m asthmatic. I cry a lot, when happy or sad. I love life and everything in it but sometimes I just can’t figure out what does this have to do with me. I am a sinner, whose not.
i feel the same way…totally agree!
To accept everything!
My calling is to be a mother. I had no idea I would love children until I had one. I loved her with all my heart and all my soul. Now that I have two children my capacity to love seems to have grown twice as big. They both make me feel sick to the stomach and the joy of being with them spreads up my chest and makes me smile…a true smile, that I can’t control. My worst nightmares have paled in comparision to the thought of failing them in any way. I want the world for them, I want them to have the strength and wisdom to reach for the stars, recognise their callings and realise their dreams.
This calling has motivated me to help other children to reach their full potential. I am teacher: I just can’t forget that each of my school children is somebody’s baby and brings them this joy…they are so special. This motivates me to work harder for them and to have high hopes and expectations for them…I hope they have the courage to follow their dreams and I hope to help nurture this and never do or say anything to make them consider the possibility of failure!
I love Aideen’s reply, my call is to be a mother too, I have a 6 weeks year old baby girl, and she is my reason to be a better human being!
I had many calls in my life, to succed in my work, to be a great friend, to travel…but probably the most important thing for me now it is to be happy and win over my last Fears, as I want to be happy and joyful for my daughter, I want to be a great role model for her, to write the best novels for her and teach her to love life and trust that life is joyful! that she can achieve whatever she wants in this life, as long as she trusts herself, and although there are rough times, there are also great people and adventures to take in this journey x
Thank you to you all

eternity, if there is any such thing like that!!!
Personally, I do not know exactly, what my call is. I thought i was going in a right direction while studying inteh univeristy and planning to pursue masters degree, but now I found out it was not the case. May be your call- is not something you think it is, but something that makes you live in peace and harmony. Then, my call is in writting, but by this time, I coul not make myself write a solid story, my temper is so short term,and I do not even fulfill what I was dreaming about for a long time. How can I know that this is my call then& Questions are everywhere…
i think my call is to helping people. to live in social life. to discover something, motivate someone, and share everything to everyone. it feels like flying and free, when i’m helping people. i’m so grateful with that…
Paulo Coelho, you are so inspire me…
I love your book “The Zahir”…
really can open my eyes with a lot of new experience…
thank’s…
love, Levanna
my call is to live a healthy life, a life driven by purposefullness rather than refelxive ego, life were God is the centre of all what i do, God’s will is the priority that upon which i take my decisions ,i talk to God ,i pray to God, for God is the only one who truely understands me, a life were i can trust God enough through all what God created and believe faithfully that this is the best thing for now, and where i am going is somewhere God wants to be there , and like a friend of mine says,, fullfill my reason, even if i dont know it, i trust that there is a reason.
As a young girl I wrote a poem, it started like this; “If i was a gift, I would give myself to love”. And so I did. My call is to give and to pass on the healing powers of love no matter what I do. It is not easy, but the rewards are magic and the troubles only its shadows. This is my call, no questions,just action and pure determination.
Light, Love, One

penso che la prima chiamata sia alla VITA….dopo cio’e'il vivere che ci fa trovare la nostra strada.Io secondo la mia esperienza,posso dire di aver concluso che la chiamata e’ solo vivere…..La vita serba in se’gioie.,trappole,sofferenza,amore,rabbia….il pensare al perche’ ti fa perdere di vista l’oggi…mi ripeto vivi,ascolta il cuore,apri la mente,guarda con occhi aperti ,pieni di voglia di stupirsi ancora,trasforma la rabbia in amore,dai amore,dimentica il male,perche’lui ti tiene ferma….questo e’ cio’ che penso,cio’che ho appreso.L’unica vera chiamata e’ vivere nel rispetto della vita…..
Sagge parole. In questo momento sto leggendo il Cammino di Santiago, e spero di poter trovare anch’io un modo per vincere le mie paure, e smettere di sentirmi vittima di esse. Come dice Paulo, nella vita si cade, ma l’importante e sapersi rialzare e continuare a lottare.
My call in life…I am curious about nature and this universe…like to ask questions…I want to teach high school maths and science…
To be a daughter, wife, mother and friend. My glorious Creator laid out his purpose/calling for my life even before I was born. I have learnt to listen to the little voice in my head, follow my instincts and the sign posts He lays out for me along the way. Maybe there is another calling just down the road in some far off future but in the meanwhile I glorify in where I am right now.
I should have been God’s wife, but God turned me into the opposite, which is disgusting.
YOU! :D
To pray.
HOLY COW, I really don’t know. Wish I knew
listen to ur conscience .not the sounds from others , ie family friends,teachers,govt,preachers…Only then will u be able to hear what ur call is ….
close ur ears to other nonsense.
My call is to be a storyteller. There is no other calling for me except to be good to those I love and care for, and to be loving and caring to all. My stories are my soul, and my way to God for I know God granted me this gift to bring myself happiness and and happiness to others. I have never found another person who understands this, and it’s so hard to explain. Better to write it instead :)
I think my call is to have an inquisitive mind, putting questions like: Why is science talking about the big bang?
….if you observe the night sky, star systems are all moving in different directions……some towards us, some moving away…….had there been a big bang all matter would be moving in the same direction away from the point of explosion!
yet to find out.. but i read somewhere-
i don’t have to search for my call, when it feels i am ready it will come to me.
i think i am in the process of preparing myself so when it comes there’s no looking back.
Actually I dont know….i am struggeling to find out!
My call is to give my all to the world, for the world. wether its my singing, piano playing or Oud playin, wether its writing. I know i wanna share it with people so that i will one day inspire someone. I wanna give my all and make the best out of every talent and passion i have inside me .
Love. Ornella
At this moment, my heart is telling me something it’s been trying to say for a while now.
I listen to it for a few days, think how I could go about and do it. But then I forget about it, for a few more months.
My call is poetry. I love reading it, I love writing it, and I want to publish a poetry book. But always making up excuses. My current one is that I don’t have enough pieces for a book; less than a hundred.
Lets hope that I will do it, and not forget about it for good this time.
Much love <3
Walaa
SÍ walaa el sueño. COME ON
