Let me start with a beautiful Quote by Suzy Kessem - "A heart without dreams is like birds without feathers". This book is a gift to all the dreamers in this World.

This is my First Book review and must say my favorite book ever. And probably this is the reason that I picked it for reviewing. As a kid I have always been a dreamer and I am sure most of you are. But there are times when we are scared to dream, that is because discovering new world will not only bring happiness and wisdom but will also bring lot of insecurities and fear of unknown. But one needs to remember, that you will not be able to reach wisdom without facing your fear and you will never be able to value happiness without knowing what sadness is all about.

ABOUT THE BOOK:

THE DOLPHIN- is a wonderful book that awakens the dreamer within us. This is a story of courage , of struggle against our own fear, our own limits. It reminds us that there is more to life than meets the eye, things we can only discover if we follow our own rules. It is a story of a hope that unveils the magic of this world, the magic we often seem to forget.

STORY

This is a story about Daneil Dolphin who dared to dream big. He knew there was nothing more important in his life than the moments he spent riding waves. He was convinced that there was more to life than fishing and sleeping, so he had decided to devote all his energies in discovering the true purpose of his life through his surfing and the wisdom of the sea. But to his disappointment his friends could not understand what he was trying to achieve.

TAKEAWAY

There comes a time in life, when there is nothing else to do but to go your own way, and that is what Daneil Dolphin did. Through out his journey he learnt some great lessons some while enjoying and some though a hard way. He believed in himself and had followed the omens of his journey. He has finally surfed the Perfect wave, and in doing so had discovered the true purpose of his life and that was, live a meaningful life with happy existence. He managed to cross the line where dreams become reality.

After achieving his dream he returned to his pod. He understood that in order to convince his friends,  that they were able to do what he had done, he had to show them that dreaming is something they had experiences sometime in their lives, something they had buried in the bottom of their hearts.He managed to bring change in their perspective through his experience and they finally found some time to live and remembered how to dream.

FINAL WORDS

Follow your dreams, listen to the voice within you and let Daniel Dolphin take you on the most magical journey of all!
