Your Opinion on: revealing shameful acts by Paulo Coelho

There is a small book here, in French called Nasty Stories about Great Men.
Of course we all have nasty stories that we wish no one to hear, but sooner or later, they will surface.
Thats why I permitted the publishing of my biography thats not yet in English but is in Portuguese and Spanish.
So you cannot hide and what would you say to your children that you dont dare to say now? What will they discover after you die?
I invite you to share this in the blog either anonymously or with your real name. This way we can see that our vices are not that bad and that we are not the only ones with these flaws.
We can then see these defaults as qualities because we survived. We are warriors of light that even against all odds are able to follow our paths without surrendering to guilt.

al heco trecho en otras palabra me gusta tu sonrisa en tucara loaamo y si me pued

Here is a funny story! I hid certain things from my children, like awards from previous work, so that they do not need to feel pressure to 'be good' or walk in my shoes. They have their own dreams. One day I might show them or maybe they will find the papers when I die.

This is so true, Paulo.

My heart feels really heavy now. Maybe I should tell somebody what I did... :/

Nao sou "orgulhosa" de tudo o que fiz na minha vida, mas nao me arrependo porque tudo o que fiz ou o que outras pessoas me fizeram, me tornaram o que sou hoje, e sou feliz por isso. Quando for mae, meus filhos poderao me indagar sobre tudo na minha vida e eu serei orgulhosa de poder relatar minha experiencia a eles, boa ou ruim que tenha sido. (Dizem que experiencia é o nome que damos aos nossos erros, sendo assim tenho muuuuuita experiencia!!!)

that's so true. We're ashamed of things we've done or been through but we should be proud we have conqured them.

I love your books Paulo.. and i really like

you having a small talk with your readers..

By the way, when will be the English book printed?? are you writing the English version by yourself ??

I agree that we should often 'endure the implications' of our actions. However, the pain caused to others of revealing our actions is what i would like you to think about.

[floeynubi]

I don´t think so. In the end all acts we have done are done by us, and we are responsible for them and have to stand by them. So if these acts were shameful, they were bad, and we have got to endure the implications. It is hard, but correct.

[timshel84]

Some things are simply best kept hidden.

[Acidecritics]

You have the guts to show off some deep odd acts Paulo! Great biography!
