Eat, pray, love and the laws of "seeking physics"

Great men think alike.

I remember when I traveled with C to Suzhou in early September last year, I said something to her - "Travel is like the flow of life energy." When it was, I was in a state of Living dead , is in deep pain because of a tangled relationship, and even life is stagnant. I decided, no matter what, I was going to go out for a walk. Originally, I wanted to go to Guangzhou and go for a longer time, but all kinds of realistic fetters finally shortened my itinerary. However, long and short is the difference of quantity; walking or not walking, it is a qualitative change.

I have always believed in the power of travel. On the way, we can see more of the world, and at the same time, have more time to think about ourselves.

And Elizabeth Gilbert's story made me believe in the power of travel in self-discovery. This is what she calls "Physics of Quest".

It's a force of nature, as real as the law of gravity.

She defines the search for the laws of physics like this:
If you are brave enough, let go of everything familiar and safe, including your home, or the resentment that has accumulated in your heart. Embark on a journey of seeking truth, both external and internal. If you really want to see all your experiences as a revelation, if you see all the people you meet as mentors. Most importantly, if you are ready to face that unacceptable part of yourself, then no one can stop you from knowing the truth.

The quest physics rule goes something like this:
If you are brave enough to leave behind everything familiar and comforting, which can be anything, from your house to ... And set out a truth-seeking journey, either externaly or internaly. And if you are truely willing to regard everything that happens to you on that journey as a clue. And feel accepted everyone you made along the way as a teacher.
And if you are prepared, most of all, to face and forgive some very difficult realities about yourself. And the truth will not be with hell from you.

Darling, you have been working hard on the path of self-discovery, hold on. Remember your initial thoughts. You are stronger than you think.


The other one, some of the more impressive clips from the movie:
1. When the boy in the play said, "It's like hearing the sound of high-fives from dolphins".
2. Love the dress Jolie wore to the Indian girls wedding, and the grain on her head. . (I don't know what to call that thing.." 3.You want to come to the castle, you must first cross the
river._Richard.
Be creative, love it.
5. The last paragraph that Liz and Ketut said. "Sometimes being out of balance because of love is also part of a balanced life."
6. The old man who ended up with Liz in the second half of the film, I like it. Hey-hey.
