“I am an adventurer, looking for treasure”

Ariel, I have noticed that dark and bizarre works with bad ending that resemble true life is “good literature”, I do hate it with all my heart. I do prefer Stephen King and his fiction horror to any real life horror that may happen or had happen. I prefer books with good endings that give me hope. Also why is Coelho a fake guru? He made a graphic system of symbols in this book, he knows deeply what he is talking about, he studied alchemy for years and came to his own conclusion what it is and why it is work or not. Before that I studied Carl Gustav Jung, and also a big fan of him, he also studied symbols and influence of religions and esoteric sciences on peoples mind. So it is possible that in order to understand this book a person should have the right background and knowledge or the right sense. In my eyes it was genius to put this hard and boring subject into such easy and entertaining form and also explain why. He made this old subject digestible for wider public and contributed to personal development to those who did take him seriously, not just as “a next best thing”.
PS.One of our English teaches was very particular about the difference of the use of the words classic and classical. Classical is relating to ancient Greek or Latin literature, art, or culture. Classic - judged over a period of time to be of the highest quality.

“I am an adventurer, looking for treasure”

I wonder if those pretty and silly girls really read him and know why they like him? They were probably told that he was in fashion and they should say it and now those who are more clever know what name to say next. It amazes me that fashion applies to books too. now coelho is a fake guru just because of them

“I am an adventurer, looking for treasure”

Hi Ariel, I had no idea, I am in good company then. Seriously I am not an intellectual and don’t follow any fashion in books, I don’t even know it. I only take that suits me. I also get annoyed when someone tells me, how you didn’t read HIM? Like it was very popular with Harry Potter one time. I haven’t read it, and I don’t care. I was impressed with the 2 first Coelho books. I read his second book first (“O Diario de Um Mago”). I have studied as much as I could about the Camino and I hope to go to that pilgrimage next year myself. I read then his first book because I liked his second book and it turned to be even better. I read 2 more of his books and I didn’t like them, so I stopped there. But “the Alchemist” fits in my life that’s why it is for me, not because it is/was fashionable. I was also impressed by his personal life, when he was a teenager his parents tried to “cure” him from his creativity with electric shocks in psycho asylum, it didn’t seem to help. Coelho is definitely "not a silly commercial guru" for me, not his first 2 books, even if he is popular amongst silly commercial people.

“I am an adventurer, looking for treasure”

hi again virgo, a lot is happening around you, nothing is happening here, so I need to hide myself in the book world.

I suppose you are trying to make my blog more fun also for those who don’t read books. Your own life seems to be like a movie.

“I am an adventurer, looking for treasure”

virgosingle, you are welcome too

“I am an adventurer, looking for treasure”

Leo, I suppose it’s like with music and any other kind of art, everyone has something that “speaks to him or her” more, sometimes goes right into your heart. It’s not only the adventure in “the alchemist” I like, there are plenty of adventure books, but this books is special for me because it shows a clear pattern in my life as well as some other people’s life, those who I respect.

“I am an adventurer, looking for treasure”

Guadal, I have hard time to understand you as usual about that hen, thank you for the song, as I understand you are rather a poetry man than a book man.

“I am an adventurer, looking for treasure”

Virgosingle, you are totally right, the deeper you dig, the less chance to be understood. I was not hoping on answers to this blog at all, just finished this book at night again and felt overwhelmed and needed to say it to someone. I also think this blog shows the real me for those who want and able to understand.

morgen, it's time even for us to go to sleep soon, it's 3.10 in the morning, it is already light outside. about that "dump technique", it's a lot of job, i read about a professional dating adviser who herself dated 128 people before finding her right one so much job, full time hard work, I am so happy I don't need any "right person" any more, I have had family, my duty to society is done now, I am only having fun

almera
I read a lot of stories in newspapers every day how women are killed by people they knew very well, like family or husband, you never know who turns a psycho, talking to him on cam or phone doens't change anything
the rest i agree, also how soon we may feel comfortable with different people
Frank
i think it is not very hard to find out who is real or not, especially for me when i don't look for marriage or true love forever, i leave "wrong" people speachless, they don't know how to talk to me

virgosingle, of course it's going on and on, it is a single site, right?

what is your Internet dating routine?

morgen, I like how you are talkative about your old dates today I can't understand another thing people are saying never talk about your exes and previous dates on your dates, I think it's the most exciting and interesting thing how he was and is with other women. Yes, for a real relationship distance is important, there is no certain exact measure as robert said somewhere, it is how you perceive it, if you feel it's too long for you, it will never work.

what is your Internet dating routine?

morgen, I think we know just within a few minutes when we like each other or not, our subconsience calculates it all, but we can put up with almost anyone as a freind and go through things we planned to do anyway, that's why I date only places now, never disappointed.

what is your Internet dating routine?

good night tony, it's really late, 2.26

what is your Internet dating routine?

you love me too and who else?

what is your Internet dating routine?

morgen, that's why I also find those long home visits are so scary, you have to put up with them for so long. "the first date" lasts an eternity and it doesn't matter how much you talked on the skype or phone before if the chemistry is not there. it's different when you can plan to do things, like go to some place and see things together, even if you are not crazy about the person you may still have fun together doing things

what is your Internet dating routine?

stony what is amazing?

what is your Internet dating routine?

thank you ariel, for my 3 year old dating career, i had about 20 dates and some of them turned into long term relationships, so i manage to survive anyway never spoke on the phone or cam with anyone

what is your Internet dating routine?

Ariel, I appreciate that you and other people can do it and even enjoy it as well as many like first dinner dates, but I can't, no way. I someone doesn't agree with my routine it is his problem

what is your Internet dating routine?

Ariel, when you meet in person it is completely different.I am usually nervous before but relax very soon. when you meet in person you can do things, adapt and relax, I almost never felt it as a problem in a meeting with a real person, my biggest fear is cam or phone, you just have to stare into each other's face and when you have nothing to say you just stare and can't do anything.

what is your Internet dating routine?

Hi again, I am back from my walk, I will read and answer eventually where my answer are needed, are they really? I can tell you why I don’t like any instant communication as phone or skype or msn. My biggest fear in dating is silence, I am scared to death of silence and try to avoid it as much as I can, when people looking at each other and don’t speak. When I get an email into my email box I can answer when I invent the answer. When I talk to a person I don’t really know I am so nervous, I am afraid I wouldn’t be even able to even think, maybe he too.(I alway have to speak on a foreign language, for me writing is much easier than speaking). I have been on a couple of scary silent dates, where he either say “you are so beautiful” all the time or he doesn’t talk at all, or answer short to my questions. I would never in my life go through a dinner date when people have to watch each other in the face waiting for dinner to come and then they must eat it too. On cam he also will be staring right into my face and my eyes and I have nowhere to hide. I can’t even stand the thought. Not even with my son! Did anyone ever felt like this? I mean when we meet we can do things together and don’t look into each other’s faces, and we have nothing to talk about for a moment we can DO something.

stony what is tony unhappy about?
If i happen to fall passionately in love with someone i meet i will go for it, thought i make it clear from the start no love to anyone will stop my life style and curiosity about the world.
