“I believe in signs. After I had walked the road to Santiago, everything had changed completely: what we need to learn is always there before us, we just have to look around us with respect and attention in order to discover where God is leading us and which step we should take next. I also learned a respect for mystery. As Einstein said, God does not play dice with the universe; everything is interconnected and has a meaning. That meaning may remain hidden nearly all the time, but we always know we are close to our true mission on earth when what we are doing is touched by the energy of enthusiasm.”
“If it is, then all is well. If not, then we had better change direction.”
“When we are on the right path, we follow the signs, and if we occasionally stumble, the Divine comes to our aid, preventing us from making a mistake.”
Paulo Coelho, The Zahir: A Novel of Obsession

I’ve been wondering too if the true answers is always at the end of our fate. But if we can sort it all, we can find more answers by recollecting from our past experiences.
Paulo Coelho has a way with words. He invites his readers to explore deeper within themselves for insights they have forgoten but can tap into anytime.
Dear tania, enthusiasm is so contagious. Yes and I think one could receive signs if one is open for the occurrence and the meaning…
