Alchemist is a Book, Alchemy a science.
I hope the readers wont be flabbergasted by the analysis of a few phrases.
One of the famous laws - Murphy's Law, an associate "Any attempt to print Murphy's Law will Jam the printer." The tools rolling down to the least accessable corner. Intensity of the itch depends on the rationale of the Alchemist. Now who is this character ? A man, God or Mother Nature. All the answers we seek as a "Rational Animal" are mystic, because words are not what they mean. The meaning of words depends more on the complexity of the statement.
Jack of all trades, master of none. Thats like knowledge of Mankind is like a drop of water in the ocean. Our means are scarce but our wants unlimited. Thats why I say that be it Edison, be it Einstein, an Alchemist would know Alchemy not because he wants to but because he hunts for the lustre. Crystals will reflect like Diamonds only when they are cut like it.
Lilies will grow when someone nurtures the weed.
All in all Murphy was not wrong, dont try to interpret why or else you will jam the grey cells in your mind and the flights of fantasy will die. Live life Kingsize. Dream with eyes wide open. Be ambitious, try for perfection, but remember that the whole world will conspire against you.

This is my first one if u like it do write something about it. Would love to have new friends on the cyber galaxy.
In sight of my limitations (I dream with closed eyes) I understand I tread right into unknown territory if its a response to this piece. Inspite of many words of wisdom that kind of got distorted while getting translated past my naive mind, I did make out something of the blog:
If you're ambitious, the whole world conspire against you; So better not be ambitious
hmm interesting.. keep it up..tho i believe that murphy IS correct.. and the jlt and alchemist are overt simplifications.. nice to read.. but seldom true
The aspects in writing need not always be practical. If we stick to one aspect, there is nothing reflecting or refracting in it. A Crystal is good to look at.A Diamond is cut by professionals and Not Amateurs.
