  • I don't know enough about Coelho outside of him being an author. General I can't get mad at anyone for sharing their views should someone stick a mic in their face. My problem is that we have developed this "status whore" culture where if anyone achieves any degree of fame (or infamy) a large number of people believe that everything they have to say is significant, or informed. We should all learn to think for ourselves.

  • I think you're right. I'm from Venezuela and for example, a teacher (one of the most important persons in the building of the country, because I think education i s the key) can earn something like $300 a month. How can you raise a family, pay an adequate home, etc.? By the other way you see a broker that wakes up 10am in the morning and works for nearly 4 hours and can win $5000. I think that's ridiculous. That's why the world is falling apart...

  • I'm noticing this happening now. Little sprouts. Reminds me of a conversation with a son yesterday. We were chatting about self improvement, striving to become better people. It made me smile. Thankyou Paulo, blessings!

Many of us became more creative to solve problems of daily living; to pool resources better; sharing (food gardens, child care, clothing, toys) with neighbors and friends. A few farmers not using bits of land, divided areas into small portions, then offered it to those wishing to grow food but needed land. Community gardens.

  • Paulo Coelho Rocks!

  • What's ETHICS? It changes daily. Wasn't there an ETHICS during slavery? Of course we loose track of it. It's never the same! Everyone has it's own definition. That's an easy way out. It just doesn't work. Nice word to use when referring to one self, thou

  • Nelson, believe me, if you ever come to Argentina... You would be making an understatement! Every idiot gets the mic AND camera here LOL. And so we live! Undereducation is what's killing and starving us. We are breeding robots.

  • 5/5!

  • No, palestinian children don't get that on Gaza tv. How can they? these children are too busy dying from Israeli warplanes bombing them, and ducking in their basements from Israeli tank-shelling

    but well, we know that the real crime is what palestinians watch on tv, never mind babies and toddlers dying off of phosphorous-induced burns, courtesy of Israel army
