A Dose of Paulo Coelho: Wounds

"Don't 

allow

your 

wounds 

to 

transform 

you 

into 

someone 

you 

are 

not"

No, that's not my father.

But that's certainly the man who has influenced, challenged and, in one way or another, improved my belief system, in the most fatherly possible.

I guess even yours too.

Meet Paulo Coelho.

Never has Coelho failed to shake me and indirectly urge me to do some introspective look at my life every once in a while.

From The Alchemist to his Twitter and Facebook.

He's been my antidote to pessimism and skepticism.

He'd kill my Jack Skellington every once in a while.

So from this day on, I will share a dose of Paulo Coelho.

Every once in a while.

And what do I say to his latest share of quote above?

He's made me call myself a Wounded Soldier no more but simply,

a Soldier.
