“”What do you see in that immense sky? J. asked.
”Clouds”
“No,” J. said. “You see the soul of rivers. Rivers that have just been reborn in the sea. They will rise to sky and remain there until, for whatever reason, they once again become rain and fall to earth.
“ The rivers return to the mountains, but carry with them the wisdom of the sea”
J. poured himself some mineral water. He didn't usually drink during the day.
“That is how you discovered those secrets we had never discussed J. said. “You are the river. You have already run down to the sea, and you know it is wisdom. You have died and been reborn many times. All you have to do is remember. “”( The Valkyries An Encounter with Angels, Paulo Coelho, translated by Alan R. Clarke, HarperCollins Publishers, 1995 p. 5.)
