Last night watched Xi You Ji at Channel U.
The guy in the show was inspired by this book that he gave up his high flying job in the States to work in a non-profit foundation to support Social Entreprenuer in the 3rd world country.
The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho

These are the famous quotes from this book that inspires him. He said he could go on and make tonnes of money (but he will spend tonnes of it too) but he felt empty in his life until he read this book. He has made the mission of helping the poor his passion. He is living a full life.
"When you aspire for something with passion, all the universe conspires to make it happen. "
"Wherever your heart is, there you will find your treasure"
Belinda Lee (the host of this programme) said her dream is to build an art school in Sporean for poor students and make it a place where they can fufill their dream. She said everyday, she asked herself "What is her purpose in life".
Where is my treasure/purpose? I am still searching for it.
