Fluent Thoughts

The Alchemist
Written by: Paulo Coelho

A fable about following your dream.

A shepherd who had to travel for long distance, and learn from his trip the things that will lead him to his Personal legend.

There is a reason for every thing, and every thing is written by one hand in this universe.

This Book is a must read book; I read it in four days, and felt sad when it ended.

You could find it in Amazon.com .

Enjoy it

Last Wednesday me and Ra-1 had to spend the rest of the day after work together; She came picked me from work and we went to the super market to buy somethings, then went to starbucks to have latte (me), caramel Frapatchino (Ra-1), after that we went to her house and sat there watching some photos and chatting about life.

After Maghreb (sunset) Prayer we went to visit a friend to see her little girl that she had delivered four months ago. The girl was adorable, cute and funny.

What I really want to say through this post is that at that day I discovered that I had a person that could deal with my stuttering in the best way; I never and I really mean it by NEVER met a person that could not let me lose the eye contact, wait for me and never complete my sentence as she did.

Thank you Ra-1 for being that person; I love you.

“Until when, you want to stay single?”

“Until it’s time”

“Dear TF you have to marry”

“Why? I don’t want to marry now; and, this guy has nothing in common with me”

“Why??!! To settle …. And what do you want to marry? An angel”

“Do you see me jumping around the room to tell me to settle?”

“Huh”

“Nothing”

This is a conversation that I had with my mom many times.

“At last we will settle”

“What ?”

“We will go to Kuwait after three months for good”

“So it will be good, won’t it?”

“Yes of course”

Another conversation that I had with my mom three months before coming to Kuwait.

“I hate living here”

“You always say that and you are still here”

“So do you want me to go?”

“Go where?”

“To England”

“And how would you live there alone”

“I will have to pass the three levels of CFA exams and work for part time in three companies in England; I will take an apartment in London and travel around the world; don’t worry I will visit Kuwait every year but not for more than ten days. I will not have time to stay alone”

“So you want to settle in England and travel around the world; well go dream of it”

“Ok”

This was a conversation which I usually have with mom.

I have searched in the Dictionary today for the meaning of settle and it was
To put into order; arrange or fix definitely as desired.
To put firmly into a desired position or place; establish.
Still I don’t understand what it means.

What is it? Is it a feeling that I should feel, should it be good to feel? Or it is just a thing people say to make you want to do the things in their minds?If it is a feeling, how does it feel?And when should I feel it?
