I have read this book 2 years ago and did not understand it much but I reread it and I cried at the end. When the alchemist said "If I had told you, you would'nt have seen the pyramids.They're beautiful, aren't they?" I Was so touched when he said that and when Santiago said " So I love you because the entire universe conspires to help me find you"😊I will forever keep this in my heart

"Life attracts life."

I just finished reading this book to my 6 and 7 year olds. I think it has important values. We did a few pages a day and I asked them question and quizzed them about it everyday to make sure they were paying attention and engaged. Another book similar to this and might be my favorite book is The Little Prince

Steez Unlimited keep going bro. Why would you quit ?

The tribesman who was searching the alchemist’s belongings found a small crystal flask filled with a liquid, and a yellow glass egg that was slightly larger than a chicken’s egg. “What are these things?” he asked. “That’s the Philosopher’s Stone and the Elixir of Life. It’s the Master Work of the alchemists. Whoever swallows that elixir will never be sick again, and a fragment from that stone turns any metal into gold.” The Arabs laughed at him, and the alchemist laughed along. They thought his answer was amusing, and they allowed the boy and the alchemist to proceed with all of their belongings. “Are you crazy?” the boy asked the alchemist, when they had moved on. “What did you do that for?” “To show you one of life’s simple lessons,” the alchemist answered. “When you possess great treasures within you, and try to tell others of them, seldom are you believed.”

One can never achieve more than what his life is destined for nor can he achieve earlier than when it is destined for. But still we as humans are required to continually perform our duties. Duties towards parents,family, nature and society. Every human should continually try to learn, improve and practice mindfulness and be aware appreciate everything of the present moment. For there is nothing left in thinking about the past - And there is nothing that can be achieved by worrying about the future. Anything and everything that you seek, want and can do lies in the present. Your entire life is in the present. - Bhagwad Geeta ( book/audiobook can be found in English)

Why would you absolutely destroy a family and cause more trauma thinking that'll fix everything when everyone else around you is already trying to make this world a better place

That's not what it's saying. In the book the character is debating staying in the desert to be with his love. But realizes that he has to go and accomplish his mission because if he abandons it, he will regret it forever. He goes and gets the work done and then plans to return to his love. It's simply saying you can't abandon the mission for love. You need to complete the mission but you can also have true love
