Maktub

I just finished reading the Alchemist. The second time. And thank God I gave it another shot. Last time when I read it , it was a long 6 years back – when I thought I am all worldly and wise. Now I know , hardly did I understand the book then.
Back then , I felt it a complete waste of Santiago’s time in search of his treasure which he had finally to find where he started from and in the process mine .. waste of time I mean.
But today I am close to believing in the word “Maktub” … “its written” … You were meant to visit all the places you visited and are about to ..you somewhere already belonged to them …and the people ..you were destined to meet every single person u meet in life.
And that’s what makes the process – it was finding a treasure for Santiago , and leading the life for us… interesting !!
On the side note –Maktub doesn’t mean , you will get everything for free since its meant to be yours – no. It probably means that knowing its written , you should be able to be at peace with self in every moment of pain , fear , uncertainty and darkness. Because then you are aware that it is just a part of the process and well at the end it is all Maktub 
