Agradeço a você por tê-lo escrito. Gostaria de ser uma escritora como você um dia.</p>CybelleMon, 10 Mar 2008 13:47:40 -0000http://paulocoelhoblog.com/2008/03/10/the-witch-of-portobello-complete-and-free/#comment-9891653<p>I just finished reading The Zahir... the only book I've ever entirely read...

I think many people are surprised that an author as well known as yourself has taken such a bold step. You're an inspiration to the rest of us.</p>ObscureThu, 06 Mar 2008 13:04:16 -0000http://paulocoelhoblog.com/2008/03/10/the-witch-of-portobello-complete-and-free/#comment-9891651<p>I just finished the book and loved it!

Mr. Paulo Harper Collins! :-) Just kidding! :-)<br>I am very glad that the initiative of allowing your readers to have access into free online books had a great impact even on important publishing houses! <br>I believe that it is not easy at all to change people's mentalities, even if you mean well because there is a trend of stubborness which opposes everything just for the sake of contradiction, without taking into consideration that it can be a win-win situation for both parts... So, congratulations for your achievement and keep doing good things from which we all benefit! :-)<br>I like Athena, the witch of Portobello and I believe that there is a little of her wisdom and search of inner Self, of Truth in each of us. Athena is me, you, he, she,they, all of us! :-)<br> Hagia Sofia is revealed when we listen to the song of our hearts, when we are free to feel our inner Light!<br>But Athena is not really understood by many people, her struggle is with herself first and foremost, because she needs to know who she is, she needs self-respect in order for others to understand and respect her!<br>I wish she were more courageous and needn't feel that she has to hide from the rest of the world...<br>People feel that wearing "masks" protect them but from what? From being vulnerable and hurt? No one can hurt you unless you want to be hurt. <br>It is very important for each of us to show our real Self, the Spirit, leaving "masks" behind, the illusions of what we have put upon our real personalities. Then we will be really sincere and free, free to open our hearts, to be and give Light simply out of sheer Joy!<br>Thank you so much, dear Sir, for everything! Just shine now and forever!:-)</p><p>Many hugs and appreciation from all my heart,<br>Carmen Larisa</p>Carmen LarisaFri, 29 Feb 2008 07:31:38 -0000http://paulocoelhoblog.com/2008/03/10/the-witch-of-portobello-complete-and-free/#comment-9891640<p>Thank you, Paulo!
