i just finished reading Veronika Decides to Die by Paulo Coelho. amazing philosophies, most of them I agree with. i like the way he composes his thoughts, it’s as if he went through all the possible avenues that that certain thinking can take. the way he questions what crazy really meant? the concept of being normal as simply a consensus among people. and that for the so-called insane person to be cured all they need an awareness of life. when I had finally put the book down all I could do was to clap.

a toast to you mr. coelho!

another book wherein you can identify yourself with the characters at a certain point in your life. it gets you to reflect on how you lead your own life.

are we just merely staying in the bounds of what is normal because of the fear of rejection from the consensus of the world around us?

are we robbing ourselves of the opportunity of experiencing the miracles of life because we are afraid of taking risks?
