  • #5
    Paulo Coelho
    “You have to take risks, he said. We will only understand the miracle of life fully when we allow the unexpected to happen. Every day, God gives us the sun--and also one moment in which we have the ability to change everything that makes us unhappy. Every day, we try to pretend that we haven't perceived that moment, that it doesn't exist--that today is the same as yesterday and will be the same as tomorrow. But if people really pay attention to their everyday lives, they will discover that magic moment. It may arrive in the instant when we are doing something mundane, like putting our front-door key in the lock; it may lie hidden in the quiet that follows the lunch hour or in the thousand and one things that all seem the same to us. But that moment exists--a moment when all the power of the stars becomes a part of us and enables us to perform miracles.”
    Paulo Coelho, By the River Piedra I Sat Down and Wept

    Because they can see beauty in women when women have long ceased to see any beauty in themselves.

    Because they come from little boys.

    Because they elevate sports to religion.

    Because they always finish the food on their plate.

    Because they are brave in front of insects and mice.

    Because a well-spoken four-year old girl can reduce them to silence, and a beautiful 25-year old can reduce them to slobbering idiots.

    Because they’re truly as simple as they claim to be.

    Because they love extremes and when they go to extremes, we’re there to catch them.

    Because they are tender they when they cry, and how seldom they do it.

    Because what they lack in talk, they tend to make up for in action.

    Because they really love their moms, and they remind us of our dads.

    Because they never care what their horoscope, their mother-in-law, nor the neighbors say.

    Because they don’t lie about their age, their weight, or their clothing size.
