Dear Mr. Coelho,
it was so nice to read the text about the painting (rose) and the story about you and your wife. The end of my second marriage is not far and that’s the reason why your text, that a better time can come even late, was so fine to read. But I hope what you wrote is TRUE. At the end of your text, there was a link, to click on, if somebody wants a translation into German. The link said, that it is a FAIRY TALE. Is the text really a FAIRY TALE or true?
Best wishes for the time that will come.

I would like to add a beautiful quote from Alex Mero: ‘ Intuition is an inner knowledge, the guide of our mission ‘
Leena, beautiful thoughts.
i don’t have a camera but i would love some guidance. Going through some tough times right now more emotional than physical. I’m searching for something call it peace, making sense of the world and coming up empty. Feeling that the hopeful person that i have always been is beeing drained away turning me into a cynic a non-believer. Feel like the good samaritan that stops on the side of the road to help an injured person thinking its the right thing to do then getting sued by that person for moving him and causing bodily harm. i feel that no good deeds go unpunished and that disturbs me and has created a hole in my soul that i dont know what to do with. im having a crisis of faith. Not 100% atheist not 100% believer either.
if you could guide me towards something, anything that could be helpful i’m willing to follow as long as it does not require monetary spending.
What is the purpose of love in our relationships? What is the goal when both people admit that they love the other? What are they supposed to do with that love? Is it supposed to just make them feel good? Are they supposed to transform it into something even more meaningful? What are the options for transformation? Is the love alone enough?
Love is a gift from God. It shows up in the least expected of places. It can transform your perceptions into new ones. And those new perceptions can transform your life. Is the goal to keep changing your perceptions? How can this be achieved? Unconditional love for another human resembles the closest type of love that we are supposed to share with our creator. This type of love should help bring us closer to God. How is this achieved? How can we improve our relationship and walk with God while loving another human unconditionally? Is it just from the act of loving, or is there something more?
Hello,
I spent a time watching almost all videos here, with a question in mind. How these words could be inspiring to a wanderer who likes to gather the world. I Liked two artistic creations, the one posted by Stefan and the one titled Stumble like Cupid, as I liked Svenja’s Martin Luther King’s words.
Thanks Paulo.
I’m a great fan of yours…
You have touched so many lives,including mine, through your writings.
I just want to share what’s running through my head right now…
(which I have also just put in my blogsite..just now)
Life is indeed a long journey of proving oneself..not so to other people
but to our very own self!
Take it not as a struggle
but a process.
When people have the notion that you can plant a tree
they will forever test your ability if you can really do so…
criticize you and your plants
and even your garden.
Some will even try to think of every possibility just so to discourage you
and to condition you and other people who knows the same that you can not.
Then it becomes a battle between yourself and your inner being….not anymore against them.
They will try to kill the notion they once knew
and if you allow it to happen….they may even kill the true you.
And if they see that you are not discouraged…keep an eye on your garden.
I have always believe that everyone is good per se….
But now I have realized….some are compelled to do evil
not only by other people…but also by the struggle they have among themselves.
It is a choice to be the planter who is being criticize or the one that makes the criticism.
But we also have the choice to be neither….that is if we can have a great life despite the shit that other people is throwing on us.
…and to do so can only start within.
Reading Whit ‘s poem” Captain O Captain” reminded me that there were some unfinished business.
How are the repairs going Captain Nimo – lo?. Still struggling by the look of it.
In need of a GPS perhaps? What with “el nino y la nina”, weather conditions can be a bit unstable at the moment.Mitote “can get in your eyes”.
Take your time, go with the flow, I’ve got a sore-throat at the moment, so can’t talk much.
…only a broomstick away.

Paulo Coelho,
I loved your book the alchemist. It helped give me a new outlook on life. although i am only eleven i think you have atouched many people and will inspire many more. Continue doing what you do best1 thank you!
A me mo to Paulo
That “earth shattering” thing called “Seismic” does not work for me.
How did this happen?
Possibly the results of some cosmic interferences (cosmic rays, dark matter, light energy, photons, a lunar “occultation”)God knows!
I have a request (telepathy one) to send to “Captain Nimo” lo
I believe balance needs to be restored – not too high and in particular not to lo -w (too many dark noles and (d -hi- han -scion) Does not suit my new regimen now. I am PRivate by the way.
Trust repairs will be undertaken as usual, in the professional manner that is expected from you, that is at the speed of light in a fraction of a nano-second.
Tak! Tak! (it is Danish for “Thank You”)
so now, I am switching on to “You can do magic” and my “Good Vibrations”, In full 5 D mode and with a leap of faith, I am outta of here in a Flash

Thank you Paulo for this gift of time and space I am a native man in Oklahoma and while attending the U.N. Conference On Global Warming in Montreal, Canada,Nov. 2005, I met a stunning woman, a health professional recently immigrated from Moldova. To my great fortune she was as taken as I and we spent every possible moment together and when I left we communicated numerous times every day until at last she came to visit Oklahoma. From the beginning I knew I was too old for this Princess but she pooh-poohed the age difference and I allowed myself to dream….for a while. But,always but, reality,always reality. To describe our love is to describe the epitome of love itself and somewhere ,sometime “Princess” Viktoria will find each other again and,the Gods willing,we will share once again in life’s greatest gift, that of course of Love.
She introduced me to you Paulo. I am in her debt.
I wrote the following on your blog space.

Princess Viktoria of the Kingdom of Moldavia sent me this exquisite story of The Cloud and the Dune. We met in a country foreign to me, Montreal, 3 years ago as I was on a short visit and where she had recently immigrated from her Motherland of Moldova. It was Viktoria that made me forever grateful that I never lost faith in finding her, the “One Great Love” of all my lives.I was her knight in rusty armor, she my unearthly Goddess….and to my everlasting exultation, she loved me. She came to visit me, her earthbound native warrior, at my home in Oklahoma and for the briefest moment, we were allowed to bring alive all our dreams of love fulfilled. Time, my ancient age, her deserving youth, was the only force that could and did drive us apart.
My prayer is only that she find a way to tell me that she is alive and well. Then only can I find the pain endurable.
These are my words,Princess Viktotia
Until we meet again, I remain with love and respect,
your loyal Shongaska
Bonjour,
je souhaiterais savoir si vous avez écrit “La sorcière de Portobuello” simplement par imagination, ou sur des faits réels
S’il vous plaît, c’est important
Je vous remercie
Cher Paulo,
Merci pour avoir instiller cette petite flamme en moi, elle traverse tout mon corps.
C’est la magie de la vie, un vrai mystere inexplicable.
Je sais que j’ai encore du parcours a faire – petit a petit- j’ai compris tant de choses cependant.
Il me semble vous connaitre depuis longtemps. Vous etes comme un frere.
Continuez a nous inspirer tous.
Bien a vous
Oh Paulo, you are going to be so pleased…. Finally, a breakthrough. I sold all the cards.
I need your address so that I can forward the receipt.Thank you.
Love always,
:D :D :D

I wrote a letter to the itinerants ; le Cirque du Soleil
Yesterday, someone asked me who I was?
Who am I?
I am a link.
I am a soul that connects.
I am a mixture of all the elements.
I am the fusion between the good and the bad,
I am a movement – a tic-tac with a tactic,
I am a tiny pod constantly changing and growing,
I am naive and a fool, I am funny and also very deep,
I am a speck of the truth,
I am an extension of nature – the trees, the birds and the sea,
I am my own alchemist,
I am the flesh of an endangered specie.
Buddhism has a belief named “Wheel of Life”. All living beigns are supposed to have one. And it’s supposed to spin and whirl, which means that we’re living and doing whate we were meant to be on this planet. It’s also known as our fate, destiny, personal legend or whatever given name. We know our Wheel of Life is spinning when life is taking its course, like growing up, having life experiences, dating, getting married, working, travelling, etc. “Coincidences” and “luck” are special signs meaning we’re on the right (or wrong) path. A special characteristic of this wheel is that it never spins backwards. Even if a person is on the “dark side” of life like criminals, it is still spinning, always forward. The only thing that can happen is the wheel getting slower or even stopped – not moving. But there’s one thing even worse than that: when the Whell of Life never started to spin at all. Remember that everyone has the Wheel but some of them, very few, very rare, have the Wheel stopped, paralyzed like a statue since they were born. It doesn’t mean they were born dead or are going to die, because many preborn babies had their wheel spinning. Wheel of Life is more of a spiritual than a physical concept. The reasons for this unmoving wheels are still unknown. Karma from past lives are the most common acceptable, but “God’s forsaken sons” or “God’s forgotten ones” are also said to be the possible answer. The irony is that an unmoving wheel doesn’t mean disasters or bad things happening but in fact the complete lack of happenings. There’s an old quote that says something like “when God is anger with someone He doensn’t send bad luck or disasters but simply ignores him”. Keep in mind that having stages in your life when you feel alone and with no tastes, goals or future is a normal thing… everybody faces that. Actually those “unmoving wheel beigns” feel it since they were born, and not just as a period of life. How can you identify one of them? Those who had very few or even never had datings, marriages. Those who can’t be stable at jobs, professions. Those which never fullfilled anything at all in life like educational degrees, build and raise relationships, family. Those who at even late 30′s and 40′s are still living with parents and maybe depending on them. Those who despite their health (ironically most of them are healthy and intelligent) can’t find their way of life and quit (or get quitted) on basically everything they try. And what makes them weaker after every trial is that they do it with the best of intentions and truly desires… but somewhere along the line they fall short, not knowing where, when, how or why. (Ps.: reading Paulo Coelho’s biography it seems that his Wheel of Life is a great example of a perfect spinning one, since early age).
I’d like to write a book about it. I’d name it “The Unmoving Wheel”, or “Those Who Can’t Spin”… what dou you think ? Any suggestions for this title? By the way I’d like to write about it so it could be my chance to start up my own Wheel…
