Sunday Night Reflections 12.28.08

I hope you all had an amazing Christmas!  Here are my last Sunday reflections for 2008:

  • The best gift I got for Christmas was a book – “The Alchemest”
  • I’m convinced one of the best gifts you can give are books – make sure you write on the inside cover! It makes a difference!
  • I got to spend some time with my dad and sister – it was great – I love them both so much!
  • I saw 3 movies so far this break: 7 Pounds (Must see), Valkyrie (worth seeing once), Marley and Me (No comment)
  • Almost done with Keith Moore’s series on Diligence – it is changing my life – Definitely worth listening to!
  • I’ve almost done with my 2008 year end review – it’s been incredible spending a ton of time with God – I am so pumped for what He has in store in 2009 – Whew!
  • Here are all the articles/blog posts I thought were worth reading this week

I hope you all have an amazing new year!

Book Review: The Alchemist

This book was actually a gift to me for Christmas – it ended up being the best gift I got all Christmas! (P.S. I think books make some of the greatest gifts ever – especially when you write in the covers). Let me first refer you to another review by Ben Rath here – he loved this book as well!

This book is different from the ones I usually read – it’s a fiction novel – but it changed my life. This is a top 5 all time book on my list and a new requirement for anyone who loves to read!

Here are some of my favorite takeaways:

  • “It’s the possibility of having a dream come true that makes life interesting”
  • “To realize ones destiny is a persons only real obligation”
  • “He had to choose between something he was accustomed to – and something he wanted to do”
  • “If you can concentrate always on the present – you’ll be a happy man.”
  • “Someday – this morning will just be a memory”

  • “The closer one gets to realizing his dream, the more difficult things become”
  • “Another person was there – to help him toward his personal legend”
  • “In pursuing your dreams – you might lose everything you’ve won”
  • “Every second of the search is an encounter with God – when I was truly searching for my treasure, every day has been luminous, because I’ve known that every hour was a part of the dream that I would find it. When I’ve truly been searching for my treasure, I’ve discovered things along the way I would have never seen had I not had the courage to try things that seemed impossible for a shepherd to achieve.”
  • “When you are loved – you can do anything in creation”

I know a lot of you may not be able to get the context of these things – so GO OUT AND BUY THIS BOOK NOW!

Final Grade: A++++ Buy it Here
