“When you want something, all the universe conspires in helping you to achieve it.” this sentence touches my heart. Because this sentence is just like that “God helps those who help themselves.” from Holy Bible and “Only with the nourishment of sweat we can harvest the sweetest fruit.” Those sentences mean that people do not help themselves nobody are going to help them. We must have the positive idea and the practical motion that can help us to achieve remarkable success or our dreams. People who like to whiny about everything will never know that they are hindering their success and making their way rougher then before. Although Santiago was deceived by his new friend in Africa, I think that he will trust himself and complete his dream because he has a strong will and great passion. He will still insist his dream in his setback. We will see that how did Santiago help himself and continue his story.
