I recently watched a film called Eat, Pray, Love with Julia Roberts. It is one of the best films I have watched. It is a beautiful story about a woman's search for everything, travelling across Italy, Indonesia and India following her divorce from her husband. She sets out on a path to find herself. She spent 4 months in Italy eating and enjoying life (Eay) She spent 4 months in India finding her spirituality (Pray) and then ended up in Indonesia to find a balance of the two and found love (Love) At the end of the film the following is said and I think it is beautiful -
In the end I have come to believe in something called the physics of the quest. A force of nature gathered by law is as real as the law of gravity. The rules of the quest go like this.................... If you are brave enough to leave behind everything familiar and comforting, which can be anything from your house to bitter old resentments and set off on a truth seeking journey, either externally or internally, and if you are 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 held from you.
Namaste!
Love and hugs
