E is for Egypt in which the treasure that Santiago is searching for.
M is for Mecca which the crystal merchat dreams of going to but never does.
I is for Inventions that Santiago has to bring more people to the shop to get more money.
S is for Selling tea in crystal glasses to get more costumers and make more money.
T is for Thummim which is a rock that helps answer his questions dealing with questions with his personal legend.
Then you put it all together and it spells Alchemist.
Dreams decide how you
Live your life. Either you go
For them or you don't.
Santiagos Life reminds me of a song called dream on by aerosmith.
Lryics
Everytime that I look in the mirror
All these lines on my face gettin clearer
The past is gone
It went by like dust to dawn
Isnt that the way
Everybodys got their dues in life to pay
I know what nobody knows
Where it comes and where it goes
I know its everybodys sin
You got to lose to know how to win
Half my life is in books written pages
Live and learn from fools and from sages
You know its true
All the things come back to you
Sing with me, sing for the years
Sing for the laughter, sing for the tears
Sing with me, if its just for today
Maybe tomorrow the good lord will take you away
(x2)
Dream on, dream on
Dream yourself a dream come true
Dream on, dream on
Dream until your dream come true
Dream on, dream on, dream on...
Sing with me, sing for the years
Sing for the laughter and sing for the tears
Sing with me, if its just for today
Maybe tomorrow the good lord will take you away.
You got to lose to know how to win. Santiago had to learn the hard way because his money was stolen by a thief. Now his way to egypt to achieve his personal Legend.
Without dreams, you have nothing to follow.
With nothing to follow, you have nothing to accomplish.
