The Alchemist : The Alchemist The Alchemist presents a simple fable, based on simple truths and places it in a highly unique situation of an Andalusian shepherd boy who one night dreams of a distant treasure in the Egyptian pyramids. And he leaves Spain to literally follow his dream.
In his journey, he meets many spiritual messengers, like a camel driver and a well-read Englishman.
In one of the Englishman's books, Santiago first learns about the alchemists--men who believed that if a metal were heated for many years, it would free itself of all its individual properties, and what was left would be the "Soul of the World. "
"My heart is afraid that it will have to suffer," the boy confides to the alchemist one night as they look up at a moonless night.
"Tell your heart that the fear of suffering is worse than the suffering itself," the alchemist replies. "And that no heart has ever suffered when it goes in search of its dreams, because every second of the search is a second's encounter with God and with eternity."

It is God’s blessing, it is the path that God chose for you here on Earth.
Whenever we do something that fill us with enthusiasm, we are following our legend.
Personal calling leads you to great suffering – and then the eventual joy.
Not realizing the calling leads to suffering that is bearable – eating away our soul, until one day we cant free ourselves from the bitterness.
However, we don’t all have the courage to confront our own dream. Why?
