Eat, Pray & Love


Who wouldn’t love Julius Robert, especially after all those master pieces that she had participated in, she is seriously one of the pull factor to watch the movie Eat, Pray and Love. Who would have known, I was casted a present, a present of enlightenment.

To some, bringing their brain for a relaxing after work movie is never an option. Not sure for sure but this is a motto for my brainless quest. However, after watching this two and the half hour movie, it gave me more than just an entertainment.

In this world, one has to love to live or live to love? Ideal state is never attain by mouth, but should be felt by heart. As spoken by the wise one in the movie that the eyes should be on the heart and not the brain! We seek up and down for an enchanting romance but after banging against the wall times and times, hated and agony manifested to the degree that the simplicity of love is being engulfed.
Lately, I am being branded as the ironic enemy by someone whom I was deeply in love with, but due to some issues, parting is more beneficial then togetherness. I was paranoid. Like what the movie emphasis, Eat in Italy, Pray in India and Love in Bali. I agreed to achieve, as well as, wanted to attain.

Eat in Italy, a symbolic gesture to regain back all your senses. The senses that trigger off the attraction for a longing relationship, telling one what is love. We get blurred by all the neo-lighting in this urbanized city that our senses are being numbed. There are times that one saw chaos and ruining occurring in the city as an unwanted site, however, due to these ruin in Italy, it gave it culture. Just like in life, things are bound to change, but changes are hard to accept. For good or bad, it depends on one to look at. Thing doesn’t go the way it is plan doesn’t necessary meant that it is going on the wrong direction. Learn to accept, not only on the sight, but on the beauty of it.
Pray in India, a level of attainment for purity in mind and soul. God exist everywhere and abstract in view. Is it really the fairy like lady that you are praying to, being the god that you seek? It is actually the god that exists within oneself. Like religion, I always believe that it is a teaching, a teaching for moral, balance and love in life. So why should it be a figure that was crafted? Finding one’s own purity and focus should be the way to filter the noise and footprint in our life. Immortality as it might seems, ideally, I want to follow. When it is time to let go, let it go gracefully. This is the time to forgive oneself. Learn and embrace.

Love in Bali, a differentiation between love and lust (personally). Distraction is bound to occur but is that what one really wants? Julius moved away from that hunk… what about you or me? However, when love really appears and cupid really aimed, as what the guru enlightened, don’t worry and don’t hold it back. Just let it flow… Just like a rubber band that was kept in the cold, it loses its’ elasticity. We knock ourselves against the walls times and times again. It gave us nothing but thick dead skin. As a form of protection or as a form of skepticism? However, chances only happened once and we really only lead our life once. So do what one may.

As stated again and again in my blog, life is full of irony… I do take this film as a wakeup call. What about you?
