Don't think about what you've left behind" The alchemist said to the boy as they

began to ride across the sands of the desert. "If what one finds is made of pure
matter, it will never spoil. And one can always come back. If what you had foun
d was only a moment of light, like the explosion of a star, you would find nothi
ng on your return.
? Paulo Coelho, The Alchemist
