We have reached the final leg of the Redfish Rally 500. I know my part is grateful to have shared these four weeks, which have been very exhausting and stressful because of the real-life world situation.
I wish all my friends participating in the Rally a lot of luck in the decision of the Rally, and I say luck because the six are excellent. Your publications are of very good content. I say content, because for me Quality is relative. It will depend on how you look at it, as we Venezuelans say.
Greetings from my homeland to all of you:

The extra publication I'm going to do with a friend's theme @KittyGirl, about a favorite book and its author.
Reading is one of my hobbies, I'd say the main one. I feel an immense passion when I have a book in my hands.
I always imagine the author sitting down, head down, looking for the exact words to capture what they feel in that transcendental moment that inspires them.
Since I was a child, I've enjoyed visiting libraries, perhaps out of necessity, since acquiring a book was very expensive. When they threw me out and closed the doors, I left with the anxiety of what was going to happen. I did not sleep thinking and imagining the next chapter.
I am still like that. Until I finish reading a book, I don't sleep.
I've read so much that I have a pretty big list. There are characters I love as well as authors.
Hans Christian Andersen's Ugly Duckling, Jorge Isaac's Ephraim, Hermione in the Harry Potter saga, Agatha Christie's Miss Marple, Antoine de Saint-Exupéry's Little Prince, J.R.R. Tolkien's Sam, Jules Verne's Captain Nemo, Isabel Allende's Jaguar and Eagle, Miguel de Cervantes' Don Quixote and Sancho Panza, Mark Twain's Tom Sawyer, Remedios the Beautiful
of Gabriel Garcia Marquez, and so many others.
We must take into consideration that human beings do not have the same tastes. Good thing, because otherwise the world would be totally boring.
In literature this is evident, the book and writer selected is a source of criticism, although I particularly like it. Here I leave them to you.

I like the book because I believe that all human beings have a mission on earth, and that we must fulfill it. Happy are those who manage to know what it is, and of course, those who manage to achieve it.
The important thing about the story is that Santiago manages to listen to his heart, learns to recognize his personal legend and grasps that we are all part of the soul of the world.
Most like Santiago seek their personal legend, however, there is a great truth implicit in the book, and that is that the personal legend is within us. You can't look anywhere else. To be happy we don't need to go out and travel the world. You can get it in the simplest way; it can be by reading a book, watching a sunset, observing the flight of a butterfly, and so on.
When the robber tells the shepherd about his dream, he realizes that his treasure is there.
Santiago returns after so much traveling around the world, goes to bed to rest, and hears the sycorore tree. He feels calm because he was able to find his treasure, live his personal legend, and know the soul of the world.
Friends, this is my interpretation of the book, most likely you will reach another one after reading it. Learn to see the signs in nature, can tell us in the ear beautiful things that may help us survive on this planet.
I love you.
