About this listen
When I went abroad for my studies, I thought the treasure was out there — in degrees, jobs, opportunities, and the “next big thing.” 🌍 I kept chasing, believing that once I found that one thing, I’d finally feel complete.
But life had its own lessons. Challenges, struggles, and moments of feeling lost taught me what I didn’t expect: the real treasure was not in another place, or another role, or someone else’s validation… it was already inside me. 💜
This reminded me of Santiago in The Alchemist. He traveled across deserts and oceans, only to discover that the treasure he was chasing had always been within reach. His journey wasn’t wasted though — it was the journey that made him discover himself.
And maybe that’s the point. Sometimes losing, failing, or wandering isn’t the end… it’s the path that leads us back to ourselves. 🌿
