How infinite and astonishing

Are your worlds.

Thank you

For your sacred art

And sustaining presence.

D I V I N E   I M A G I N A T I O N

Forgive my blindness,

Open all my eyes.

Reveal the light of truth.

Let original beauty

Guide my every stroke.

Flow through me,

From my heart

Through my mind to my hand,

Infuse my work with spirit,

To feed hungry souls.

If you haven’t already, The Alchemist is a must read for everyone. About a young shepard in search of his Personal Legend, The Alchemist inspires one to chase after their dreams and fulfill their life’s destiny. I just re-read it and am feeling so amazing and inspired. I couldn’t re-write the entire book in quotes, but here are a few of my favorites:

It’s the possibility of having a dream come true that makes life interesting.

At a certain point in our lives, we lose control of what’s happening to us, and our lives become controlled by fate. That’s the world’s greatest lie.

There is one great truth on this planet: whoever you are, or whatever it is that you do, when you really want something, it is because that desire originated in the soul of the universe. It’s your mission on Earth.

The Soul of the World is nourished by people’s happiness. And also by unhappiness, envy, and jealousy. To realize one’s destiny is a person’s only real obligation. All things are one.

When you want something, all the universe conspires in helping you to achieve it.

If you start out by promising what you don’t even have yet, you’ll lose your desire to work toward getting it.

When each day is the same as the next, it’s because people fail to recognize the good things that happen in their lives every day that the sun rises.

If I can learn to understand this language without words, I can learn to understand the world.

We are afraid of losing what we have, whether it’s our life or our possessions and property. But this fear evaporates when we understand that our life stories and the history of the world were written by the same hand.

When you want something with all of your heart, that’s when you are closest to the Soul of the World. It’s always a positive force.

Everything on Earth is being continuously transformed, because the Earth is alive… and it has a soul. We are a part of that soul, so we rarely recognize that it is working for us.

If you can concentrate always on the present, you’ll be a happy man… life is the moment we are living right now.

People become fascinated with pictures and words, and wind up forgetting the Language of the World.

In his pursuit of the dream, he was being constantly subjected to tests of his persistence and courage. So he could not be hasty, nor impatient. If he pushed forward impulsively, he would fail to see the signs and omens left by God along his path.

Each day, in itself, brings with it an eternity.

Tell your heart that the fear of suffering is worse than the suffering itself. And that no heart has ever suffered when it goes in search of it’s dreams, because every second of the search is a second’s encounter with God and with eternity.

All you have to do is contemplate a single grain of sand, and you will see in it all the marvels of creation.

If a person is living out his Personal Legend, he knows everything he needs to know. There is only one thing that makes a dream impossible to achieve; the fear of failure.
