The Alchemist


The summarize the book of "The Alchemist" is about Santiago remembered the time he had been there with his sheep. He sat looking at the sky for a long time. Paulo Coelho is enchanting novel has inspired a devoted following around the world and is about an Andalusia's shepherd boy name is Santiago who travels from his homeland in Spain to the Egyptian desert in search of a treasure buried in the Pyramids.

The Alchemist is the magical story of Santiago, an Andalusian shepherd boy who yearns to travel in search of a worldly treasure as extravagant as any ever found. From his home in Spain he journeys to the markets of Tangier's and across the Egyptian desert to a fateful encounter with the alchemist.

The story of the treasures Santiago finds along the way teaches us, as only a few stories have done, about the essential wisdom of listening to our hearts, learning to read the omens strewn along life's path, and above all, following our dreams.

The metaphorical treasure that the boy finds is that in order to realize what you have, you need to experience something more. The boy could have been a simple shepherd and been content, but he would have never truly realized the full extent and possibilities of his life without having gone through the trials that he underwent.

I took his knowledge of the language of the world to mean that he learned that all things in this world are connected, somehow. That, too, was a treasure.
But as for the physical treasure? It was waiting for him all along in the abandoned church at the beginning - meaning that the treasure was there all along. He only needed to know how to look for it.

This novel was very good because a long many ting about Santiago, the first time went i reed the book it was to difficult to understand but my friend the she all Reading tell me some parts and in the time it was went I understand. I seed the I like so much it a good novel the never read and it was to interest me. This is what i like abut "The Alchemist" when he tried to conquest her girlfriend.

Twist Separate

Rebecca Leung's "Twist of Fate" is an article about two sister who they are twins and they born in Mexico. Did not know they were sisters on the time that Diane meat Rebecca and she tell her story and Diane see the she have same story about her daughter. After Diane hive Adriana email, Rebecca send her email about her life and Adriana it was on shocked when she see Rebecca picture. I think the it was a fate brought the two sisters together. Between these two sisters that happen, they did not know they had a twin sister in the world. Because many times we do not know the we have a twin brother in the world. My opinion about this story is the a believe the we have a twin on the world, but do not know where that person is.
