I was just watching "Eat Pray and Love", starring Julia Roberts. Now, it semed like quite a package... that movie.Deals with the very common social phenomenon- People get hurt and hurt others all the time.. sometimes by just being themselves and sometimes by being someone they are not. How to deal with it?
I ran bits of the movie through my head and tried to see if there was anything that I could pick from it, for my life.. (That is what we usually do when we see stuff that moves us in any way- round it off to the centre; "me"!)
And here is what I think....
1. You are the lead actor of your life's story. The remote must be nowhere, but in your own two hands.
2. No "baggage".... No flash backs, no sudden outbursts, nothing. You can walk into a cafe or a movie theater by yourself, without any hesitations or unpleasant emotions.
3. No crying away on forgotten birthdays or mooning away on valentine's day. You want a party? You make it happen... anytime... anywhere. You are the party, nobody can take that away from you
4. You learn to love yourself. Something which one tends to forget, sometimes... either when he/she is too busy pleasing someone else or when that other person makes it a point, that you forget it.
5. No break ups... no heart breaks.. :)
1. Guys are visual creatures, but that is kind of low in a dark room.
2. Starving will not get you the guy that you want. He will go where he is supposed to be.Face it, you cannot control it all!
3. Hypoglycemia is not = awesomeness..... It is = glucose drips+ hospital visit + long bills.
4. There is always a pair of jeans that will fit you.
5. A relationship that is skin-deep and figure-based, won't last anyway.... You, on the other hand, have to last.
1. Balance comes to those who search for it.
2. Baggages need check-in and security check... and I do not just mean the airport.
3. We don't want mess in our home, in our lives, in our jobs... then why keep it all in our mind?
4. In the noises of the buzzing world around, the voices from our hearts and souls get muffled. We don't hear them clearly,ourselves. Then, how can we expect others to hear it?
5. Everyone needs an overhauling once in a while.
And in conclusion, the "Rule of quest physics"...
If you are brave enough to leave behind everything familiar and comforting..
And set out out on a truth seeking journey- either externally or internally...
And if you truly willing to regard everything that happens to you on that journey as a clue
And if you accept everyone you meet along the way as a teacher..
And if you are prepared, most of all, to face and forgive some very difficult realities about yourself..
Then the truth will not be withheld from you.
All the best... :) :)
