Suzy,

As a massive Seinfeld fan… it’s an absolute honor to talk to the chocolate Babka lady!

I could definitely see how The Alchemist is hard to get into at first. But I think you said really well, “trying to control the future only chases it away” and I think that’s one of the tenets of the book…if we try to control the things we can’t control we will victimize ourselves, we will accept our lot in life and we will ultimately fail to exploit our own power.
