For example: to dance in the street on the way to work.” In his timeless stories and reflections on love, fear, courage, and the small wonders of everyday life, Paulo Coelho shows us that happiness and fulfilment are often much closer than we think. – A treasure trove of Paulo Coelho’s personal experiences and of universal wisdom from various cultures that touch and inspire.
