Currently, I am in a play at BYU called "The Alchemist." It is adapted from the book written by Paulo Coehlo.
With a little over two weeks till we perform, I finally finished the book this morning. It is amazing! It is a story about a man named Santiago who finds himself drawn to discovering and fulfilling his own "Personal Legend." He has many encounters along his journey as he learns about the importance of letting go of fear and following his dreams. It is uplifting, inspiring and extremely well written. It was originally written in Portuguese, but has now been translated into 80 different languages, including English.
I have been amazed at how much of the book has been applicable to my own life. After all, the story of one man is the story of us all. It is quite a poetic novel if I may say so myself.
If you like "The Fault in our Stars," I would highly recommend checking out this amazing book as well. It provides a lot to contemplate. :)
