'The Alchemist' is an amazing story. It is about pursuing dreams despite having riches without going to those dreams, despite fear of losing everything whatever one has on a way. In the book, the elder Alchemist rightly said that if we stop pursuing dreams, we lose interest in life. It stops responding to omens. Only pursuit of dreams keep life going and refreshing. I feel very light and energetic after finishing this book. Wonderful read by Paulo Coelho.
