I believe that when we look for love courageously, it reveals itself, and we attract even more love. If one person really wants us, everyone does. But if we’re alone, we become even more alone. Life is strange…

Ancient Indian (American) proverb says: “Every man is created with his/her own duty.” I believe that our duty is whispered to us within the heart, and dreams are touchs of brushes that shape our destiny.
Be happy ;-)
I am going back to France in April. I hope I might have the opportunity to meet you Paulo.
Love
I am writing down my plan.
Thank you, Dear Sido66,
Sorry I do not know your real name. !

the good traduction is : ” charmed by your blog Santosh Kalwar ( prolix and the soul of a writer who has no common ideas) “
Dear Bee, you must be a happy Bee because you have offered to the … QUEEN-BEE and to people your ….honey! A bee does not … think what comes next. Nor do the … flowers that have offered their .. nectar. They – we – all follow our …destinies. Some walk to a Path, some fly, some live for a moment some for eternity. What keeps us continuing doing that although we know that the inevitable is at the end of the road, Death ? DREAMING. Because dreams are made from our golden essence of our beings. And our Souls never stop …creating harmony, divine beauty and Ethereal music.
It is the eternal dance and music of the Spheres and we all are a dream of our …. Father/Mother, GOD.
LOVE,
Thelma
здравствуйте,уважаемый Паоло!Вы мой любимый современный писатель.Спасибо Вам огромное за Ваши книги.
Milla thank you for your comment…
I also notice that certain people are attracting to certain others on this blog. So I encourage that everyone read everyone else’s post and respond one way or another. Some people post on here just to get things off their chest, but other post hoping that others will have something to say about their words.
Thank you,
Rami
I notice that alot of people who post on here, not all, feel compelled to post positive thoughts and fail to recognize the negative side of things. While emitting positive light encourages others light to shine as well, I think that it is necessary to see the negative side of things in order to achieve a greater understanding of the positive. Positive encouragement is good and admirable, but negative recognition I feel is just as important
j’ai titré sur “live messenger” près de ma photo messenger ( une maison en bois et derrière la montagne enneigée) :
‘le rêve …la réalité…la réalité d’un rêve … un rêve à réaliser’
le plaisir d’aller vers son rêve apporte le bonheur , et qu’il est doux de goûter au bonheur …
il est important que chacun est un rêve , un rêve à réaliser afin de se réaliser soi-même et de vivre des instants de bonheur
car seul le plaisir que l’on éprouve à faire les choses apporte du bonheur ( + : chercher toujours les petits instants de joie quotidiens , vivre pleinement l’instant présent , toujours chercher la gaieté même dans les instants difficiles )
I titled on ” live messenger ” near my photo to messenger (a wooden house and behind the snowy mountain):
‘dream …the reality… the reality of a dream… a dream to be realized ‘
The pleasure to go towards its dream brings the happiness, and which it is soft to enjoy the happiness…
It is important that each is a dream, a dream to be realized to come true itself and to live moments of happiness
Because only the pleasure which we feel to make things brings of the happiness (+: to look always for the small daily moments of enjoyment, to live completely the present moment, always to look for the cheerfulness in the difficult moments)
charmée par ton blog Santosh Kalwar (prolixe et l’âme d’un écrivain en dehors des idées communes )
Charmed by your blog Santosh Kalwar (prolix and the soul of a writer except the common ideas)
Very much true! Have you, dear bloggers, noticed that you are naturally attracted more to happy people than to unhappy ones, you prefer the company of people who laugh, and, after a while, you try to avoid being with those who are constantly unhappy, complaining and negative?
We take over their waves and unless we notice it consciously, subconsciously we definitely notice that our body replies by desiring to escape.
Just remember: we don’t like to be in hospital not only because it means this way or other that we are sick but also because we often have to listen the horrible – and often exaggerated – stories of other patients. And if we haven’t been sick before, then we will be so, it’s guaranteed.
I also don’t find myself a very attractive company, when I’m in a bad mood. I try to avoid other people then.
Hi everyone, I have to say that I always read what you guys post, but for some reason I never had the courage to write something until last night, I couldn’t take this question of the day out of my mind, dreams and happiness. I started my conscientious journey in life years ago, I followed my heart and through my path I rediscovered myself several times when I thought I was lost. But now here is the question that I have for you guys, what comes after the dream?, what comes after the accomplishment?. It’s been years in my life that I dreamed to have what I have now, and don’t get me wrong, I don’t want to change those accomplishments and that happiness but how can I dream again?, what’s next?.
Love and lots of peace to everybody.
Happy New Year!!!!!
Dear Paul from Austria,
Yes I understand that Paulo advocates the privacy of Zero when he usually accepts all the comments.
But I mean interaction not among us but with Paulo, We need more of Paulo to our question and queries. Well, Yes he cannot respond to all of our queries and I think he can still stretch his best of potential.
Well, May be I will not have any comments on “God” or “Happiness”- For a moment.
Thank you- Paul.
Dear Santosh Kalwar, it is Interactive… don’t you see…?
Paulo advocates a policy of Zero Privacy… and we are all interacting… washing our lingerie here in the Blog… ;)
At first I wasn’t too sure about this policy… but I now see his point and it takes us all in a wonderful new direction… a direction that would not be possible if we were to interact with each other privately…
Love, & share Love, Paul
PS: God is within you… God is in everything… God is Love… You can interpret his/her name & place/role in your life… in any way your intuition will allow… God is all things to all men… & women
Dear Annie,
And so are you indeed :-)
I have wondered for a long time how to put a avatar there, it is always nice to see who you talking to ;-)
Have a wonderful evening everyone !!!
Love Jessica
“The best way to serve God is by going in search of your own dreams. Only the happy can spread happiness.”
Who is God? Do I have to go back and read a Bible to know about the Christianity or Should I go back and read a Quran? for Islamic religion to know about their God. Should I go back and turn on the pages of Bhagwad Gita in Hindu religion ?
All these religious text has their “own god”. Some says, Jesus was the son of the God. He came to this earth to teach us the lesson of truth and bliss. In another, There is Mohammad who is gives the knowledge about the truth and teaches us who is the God. In Hinduism, the is “Brahma, Vishnu and Mahes” three forms of God.
I am little confused with many different views on the messenger of the God, coming and speaking on earth about the God. Whatever be there views and whatever be the message, I believe they are speaking the same common language in different forms.
To serve a God?
How can a person serve a God? First to serve a God we need to understand who the God is?
Can any one tell me who is the God? Is he existing? Can we see him/her?
I am sorry but I can only see the humans, animals, plants and Nature all around. I cannot see any “Super natural power who says that he is God”.
Now Your quote says that if I have to search a God, I need to search my own dreams.
How can I search my dreams which will show me a God? Is that possible. Dream is abstract. Not all dreams could become a reality. Or, if all of the dreams could become reality all the people in the world will be “King” and “Rich and Famous”.
Actually, Till now I misread the word “serve” as “search”. Alright, Even if I have to serve a unknown character called God. It makes me little difficult to find my own dreams. Well, there are some desires but desires does not account for the dreams.
What you “think of” could not be regarded as dreams. Talking about the second sentence which states that, only those who are happy can spread the happiness. I think yes.
But tell me one person who is fully happy. No one in this world is happy. (Sorry for generalization) But I think, this is true. Why? Simply because, every humans have problems and every humans are fighting to solve their own problems. There is no human who can say or whose inner voice would say that, he is happy.
A momentary smile does not result into happiness. Happiness is extreme form of pleasure a person can deliver to significant other or any other human around him/her.
I hope this critic is enough for the quote.
P.S.
(Since this whole comment section is one direction. Where you put questions and people write comments on it. It should be more interactive. May be it is because you do not have enough time for making it more interactive.)
Un mensaje para quien tomo la fotografia…EN LA INFANCIA ESTAN LAS RESPUESTAS.un cariñoso saludo para todas y todos.
Pursuing your own dreams does not necessary bring unwavered happiness. The road is always tough, and along the way you may feel the desire to quit. However, I think that there is a difference between happiness of the mind and that of the heart. The mind may not feel happy because it processes the multitudes of the tasks that lay ahead. However, one who is in touch with his/her heart can overcome the mind because he knows what is important in life. It is easy to let our social judgement affect of heart’s desire. Personally, I try my best to listen to my heart at all times. If the heart’s voice is heard, its light projects through your body. In turn, this light spreads to other people who notice, further bringing happiness unto others.
Dear Jessica, you are so beautiful …inside and outside :)
SO glad to see you :)
i m sorry i didnt answer, but my picture was put there without doing anything…without magic tricks either ;)
Love and Graditude
Annie
:))
grown in a country where the word God was forbidden ,isit is difficult for me to believe in him,and living in the most catholic country now,it is even more difficult. but!
i feel it deep in me ,and for me He does not need prayers and sacrifices,beautiful buildings,etc. But! i try to live practicing His orders (sorry if mistake the word,don*t know other),and i know he is guiding me through my earth path and is helping me to live my legend,and listening to my heart i know He is listening too,and if he wanted some other way from me to serve Him ,He would make me know it.
so thanx for being sincere
Thank you Paul :-)
Love Jessica
Joy versus Happiness…. Mmmmm? There are subtle differences between the two, it is in the detail, I asked myself that question and the mighty Google has given its answer…
Thanks Ninni for making me think.
I m so happy today, because i love, the humanity in everyone and i think i wish to kiss some man, no aged in spirit, without beeing fear or feeling disgust of me, or of the other. And then, i wish to make love, with him, without beeing shame of me, of my face, body or beauty – changed only in my mind, in ugly-eavil, or bad.
that is my wish: if i can smile spontaneously to a man, with all my soul and spirit, then, i can kiss and make love with him.
but, i understand that it is important to be happy inside, outside, for the othersand for me, in attending this opportunity – a word he seems to pronounce si often…
good luck, in smiling, kissing and making love.

My dearest Paul, I think, Paulo Coelho, will have to arrange a … happy hour, with …wine or Amaretto, to speak about ….freedom!;]

Dearest Thelma,
Unless you hadn’t noticed… I don’t care what “Society” thinks… because “Society” is not my dream… my path… my destiny…
Thank God ;) Love, Paul

Walls
With no consideration, no pity, no shame,
they have built walls around me, thick and high.
And now I sit here feeling hopeless.
I can’t think of anything else: this fate gnaws my mind -
because I had so much to do outside.
When they were building the walls, how could I not have noticed!
But I never heard the builders, not a sound.
Imperceptibly they have closed me off from the outside world.

My dear Paul from Austria, Do you think that we ‘are’ really Free??
Try to …think or say or even …dream something that does not get the ….approval of …society or from our ….loved ones and from the ….reaction you will understand how much freedom we enjoy!!
We are the ’slaves’ of our decisions, our characters, our position in society, even the slaves of our own ‘image’, we have so …carefully built!!;]
LOVE,
THELMA
Just one funny question ;-)
How do you get a picture in the blog Paul and Annie?
I can´t find out how *LOL*
Please help me ;-)
Dios está en todos nosotros pero tambien en todas las cosas, las plantas, los animales, en el aire. Si somos parte de él nuestros sueños son sus sueños y a través de nosotros los experimenta. Por eso debemos dejar hablar nuestro corazón y actuar de acuerdo con él. Dios se comunica con nosotros a través de nuestro corazón. Por eso como dice Paul de Austria debemos ser libres, liberar a nuestra alma de los trabes y las limitaciones que nos hemos impuesto y que hemos aceptado que los demás nos pongan. sólo cuando nos liberemos de ellas , fluiremos en libertad y seremos felices. Esa es la verdadera felicidad.
Esta dentro de nosotros. en nuestro corazon.
desde mi alma a vosotros..
felicidades paulo por tus escritos.
My favourite book this. Thank U!
Sorry just had to add this;
I just took a look at my horoscope for today and it says…
“Freedom isn’t something that is given to you, it is something that you have to take.”
I don’t always read, nor do I necessarily believe in horoscopes, but I find this particular statement to be quite appropriate… & very true…
Love, & share, Paul
… absolutely dear Thelma… only a free soul is a happy soul… without freedom, our souls are trapped within and our chances are locked outside…
Love, Paul
yes it is true believe in G-d and go in search after our dream and and and never lose HOPE, I believe G-d is our leader and hope gives a lot but a lot of STRENGTH!!!!
Today I feel so calm, happy and content :-)
A good friend of mine gave me crystal healing (laying crystals on my body), and afterward I feel so in tune with universe and everything around me :-)
I also gave her crystal healing, and I felt so lucky that I can help her and she can help me.
Nothing can disturb my calm and happiness today :-)
I think I´m addicted to crystal healing from now on ;-)
It really works for me !!!
Love Jessica
“.. Only the happy can spread happiness..”
I think that from the moment we are born ‘our’ happiness depends on the behaviour and/or attitude of others towards us. Since we are all ONE we are affected from our environment. We look into the eyes of the others, our mirrors, and expect to find acceptance, appreciation and most of all, LOVE. To love and be loved. The only dream that is in everybody’s soul: the DREAM of Ideal LOVE.
Then living in society we are all ‘playing’ our conventional roles. Our fates affects others. Parents, relatives, husbands, wives, children. We are all interconnected. We must be the … rocks. But Karma plays the biggest role in our lives. It is our ‘debts’ we have to pay and our ‘lessons’ we have to learn, so that we will become all LIGHT and LOVE. If my happiness will mean unhappiness for somebody else then the boundaries will be put from our ‘inner self’.
You said yesterday, in the ROSE, your personal story, my dear Paulo Coelho, that you always desired to feel free, to be able to express your freedom. I would like to ask you, because I have always wondered about that : What would you think or feel if Christina was – as equal- thinking the same? If you would decide to make use of that ‘freedom’? Then the whole idea of the … Fairy tale love would have collapsed.
I think- may be I am wrong- that in order to feel happy each one of us must have also a … clear conscience. We must achieve a harmony and peace in our hearts and we must pray to be with the people that will be able to …reach and ‘read’ our Souls.
LOVE,
Thelma
Thank you fo the quote… we cannot spread joy if we carry misery and negative attitude towards ourselves…
Love and Graditude
Annie
Sometimes I find happiness where I didn’t expect, something mundane, some chore and wow! there it was a surge of joy from just being and letting my dreams go, maybe I dream the wrong dreams or my dreams turn abstract and silly.
Thank you for reminding me again :-)
I need to hear that again and again, until my patterns slowly has changed.
To follow my OWN heart is the only way !!!
Love Jessica
