Languge of the Universe: Love

Throughout his journey, the boy encounters many things and people that teach him the language of the world. The signs and omens of nature are parts of the universal language in which every creature acknowledges even the Spanish shepherd boy, his Spanish sheep, the camels, and the Arabs. The word, “Maktub,” represents the written language of the universe and signifies that everyone’s destiny lies in the various signs and omens of nature. However, each person must learn how to read these things before he or she is able to understand his or hers destiny. In addition, the language of the universe comes from the heart; therefore, it makes love the language that everyone around the word understands. If so, why does everyone remain ignorant of this universal language even though so many people have claimed they have fallen in love? Is it because we lack patient and the ability to listen or because we have surrounded ourselves with the pictures and languages of the world?
