Worth remembering

From The Alchemist again...

Everyone on earth has a treasure that awaits him... We, people's hearts, seldom say much about those treasures, because people no longer want to go in search of them. We speak of them only to children. Later, we simply let life proceed, in its own direction, toward its own fate. But unfortunately, very few follow the path laid out for them--the path to their Personal Legends, and to happiness. Most people see the world as a threatening place, and, because they do, the world turns out, indeed, to be a threatening place.

Again, I'm made to realize how unfounded some of my fears are. I don't like the person I've become very much: a suspicious, cynical, impatient gal. But I hope to change that somehow. Learning to rise above my disappointments and hurts is still a long, difficult process I'd gladly keep going through if only for the promise of healing and the return of my positive outlook on life. NO MORE DRAMA.

Maybe God created the desert so that man could appreciate the date trees.

I can't wait to see my date trees.
