The Alchemist

I just finished reading a fantastic book titled The Alchemist. If you haven't read it, I highly recommend that you do...

There were many thought provoking messages in this book, but there was one quotation in particular that struck me:

"We are afraid of losing what we have, whether it's our life or our possessions and property. But this fear evaporates when we understand that our life stories and the history of the world were written by the same hand." -pg. 76

I have definitely found this true in my own life...

Ha ha, the only possessions I'm truly afraid of losing are my Netscape bookmarks and my Yahoo email account... I guess if I could give up those things, maybe I really could reach Moksha! :)
