On Fulfillment

"It was the pure language of the world.  It required no explanation, just as the universe needs none as it travels through endless time.  He had been told by his parents and grandparents that he must fall in love and really know a person before becoming committed.  But, maybe, people who felt that way had never learned the universal language.  Because, when you know that language, it's easy to understand that someone in the world awaits you, whether it is in the middle of the desert or in some great city.  And, when two such people encounter each other, and their eyes meet, the past and the future become unimportant.  There is only that moment, and the incredible certainty that everything under the sun has been written by one hand only.  It is the hand that evokes love and creates a twin soul for every person in the world.  Without such love, one's dreams would have no meaning."  --Coelho

Truly, it is the possibility of having a dream come true that makes life interesting.
