I just came across this wonderful quote.
“It’s never too late to become the
person you might have been.”
- George Elliot

It reminded me of The Alchemist. Both have similar message. While one talks about having a personal legend and following it truthfully, the other talks about or rather suggests that it may not be too late for you or for me, to do, what we dream about or what we “should” dream about. We must become the person which we might have been, had we been more diligent, disciplined and focused about our goals. Many of us waver from our goals and take a parallel route and think that we are doing alright. But we don’t realize the truth until someone points it out to us. It is hidden in plain sight, and yet we do not see it. It is crystal clear, if we want it to be. It is right there and yet, we cannot see.
