Too simple siya para sa kin...nasanay yata ako masyado kay Stephen King.

The book reminded me that it’s the things, events, people and places that go your way that define your happiness…..and oftentimes, you'll be surprised to know it stops at the place you started.

I agree.. trully inspiring... It's beauty is in its simplicity, like the Little Prince... I've been contemplating for maybe 2 or 3 years now bout the lesson I learned from this book... so far, la pa rin hehe... any life changing experience from anybody?

[transcience]

I read this book almost two years ago and since then i have bought it as a gift for many of my friends and family. This is a great book full of inspiration, wisdom, and the idea of following your heart... finding your true path in life.

 

Have you read this book? any comment?

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

 

i've read it. it kinda gets boring midway. but, yes inspiring.

[hardtohandle]

Does anybody have an electronic copy of this?

[taifutzu]

I kinda predicted the ending. I think its what you get when you read too much books or watch too much movies. But still its a good one.

i love this book! it's one of my favorites. This quote from the book is my all time fave "When you desire something really bad, all the universe will conspire to help you achieve it".

 

It's sort of what the Law of Attraction is all about from the book "The Secret" diba?

[cool_runnings]

You can read it as an inspirational story loaded with symbolism, or as a straightforward fantasy tale. Either way, it's great.

this is too much like the little prince. anybody noticed the semblance? tooooo much like it.

 

i liek his plots. i mean, coelho's. but i think her "writes down" on readers. over explains everything, as if his readers wont understand what he's trying to get at otherwise. but then of course, i cant really judge his craftsmanship. it might just be the translation that sucks.

I share the same loved quote Mystique. Read this book a few years back and still can't perfect the art of "CONSPIRACY." LOL! Wish it's as easy as just thinking too much and viola! wish is granted.

 

I am in the unending process of finishing Coelho's The Devil and Ms. Prym. The Devil must have made me believe that I'm toooo busy to read. Who am I fooling, right? Just a thought, guys.

 

It brings a smile to see a Leo Buscaglia, with a twist of creativity, in the making. :thumbsupsmiley:

i agree. the ending was rather predictable. i knew what was coming long before i read the ending. and still, it is a good read.
