The Philosopher's Stone & the Elixir of Life - Master work of The Alchemists..

My day started boring, i had logged on since morning trying to do something which i had not done before. Created a blog, then i did something else which i did after so many years..

I started with a novel, its 'The Alchemist - Paulo coehlo' I know that its hard for a person like me to sit for hours at a stretch & read thru completely, but then its the content of book that really kept my enthu high to get thru it.

Its a novel about a boy who dreamt of a treasure twice & tried hard to get his destiny to reality, the experiences he undergoes is framed so realistic..

I am not a critic to comment good/bad about the novel, but then being having a freedom to express, i feel that its a novel worth to read.

Some of the phrases that i wish to keep printed in my mind..

"Everything that happens once can never happen again, but everything that happens twice will surely happen a third time"

"When you possess great treasures within you, and try to tell others of them, seldom you are believed"
