“Don't give in to your fears. If you do, you won't be able to talk to your heart.” ― Paulo Coelho,

“The two hardest tests on the spiritual road are the patience to wait for the right moment and the courage not to be disappointed with what we encounter.”

“There are moments when troubles enter our lives and we can do nothing to avoid them.
But they are there for a reason. Only when we have overcome them will we understand why they were there.”

“Now that she had nothing to lose, she was free.”

“None of us knows what might happen even the next minute, yet still we go forward. Because we trust. Because we have Faith.”

“People are capable, at any time in their lives, of doing what they dream of.”

The moment we begin to seek love, love begins to seek us. And to save us.”

“I can choose either to be a victim of the world or an adventurer in search of treasure. It's all a question of how I view my life.”

“People never learn anything by being told, they have to find out for themselves.”
― Paulo Coelho

Story - A Precious Stone

A man went to God and asked, “What’s the value of life?”

God gave him a stone and told him to figure out its value without selling it.

The man then took the stone to an orange seller and asked about its value.

The orange seller offered 12 oranges for it. The man refused and told the seller that God asked him not to sell it.

He went to the vegetable seller and also asked him what is the value of that stone.

The vegetable seller offered a sack of potatoes which the man refused too.

Then he proceeded to the jewelry shop and again asked about the value of the stone.

He was offered $100,000 which he refused too.

But the jeweler offered $150,000 again, however the man explained that he should not sell the stone.

In the end, he went to a precious stone shop and again asked about the value of this shiny stone.

The seller saw the ruby, laid it down a red cloth and he put it on it.

He asked the man where he got the stone and told him that he could never be able to purchase it even if he sold the whole world and his own life.

The man was stunned and went back to God and explained to him what happened.
Then he asked God one more time: “What is the value of life?”

To which God replied: “The answers you got from the Orange Seller, the Vegetable Seller, the Jeweler and the Precious Stone’s Seller explain the value of our life…

You may be a precious stone, even priceless, but people may value you based on their level of information, their belief in you, their motive behind entertaining you, their ambition, and their risk taking ability.

But don’t fear, you will surely find someone who will discern your true value.”

In the eyes of God everyone is unique and precious.

You should respect yourself and know that nobody can replace you.
