Eat Pray Love

I saw the movie last night, and while I thought it was ok, i wanted to comment on the message of the film, more than the film itself. In case you are not familiar, The main character is in turmoil in her personal relationships, i.e bad marrage, sucky love life. So she decides to go and find herself, by eating in Italy, meditating and India, and finding herself in Bali. The film decides that what she needs in the end is of course, A GOOD MAN. Go figure! But there were bits and pieces in there that I felt were worth exploring. Most people are so busy, and our lives are so full of crap, that we rarely take the time to Stop and enjoy the moment, take the time to silence our minds and allow God, the universe or whatever you believe in,, to fill the void! Our minds are full of so much noise, we hear nothing. Not our hearts, nor our souls whispering to us, telling us the secrets of the Universe!I am so blessed to have realized this a long time ago. During each of my adventures (travels), I make it a point to stop ,,,,, and do nothing,, but just be,,,,, silent, to feel the breeze, the sun on my face,,,and enjoy the moment, of where I am, and what I'm doing right NOW! Someone once said to me, you travel thru the eyes of a camera! I was offended! He thought that I didn't see the world or experience it, because I was too busy looking thru my lens. I tried to explain, that he didn't understand me at all. It doesn't matter whether its a second, 10 minutes, 3 hrs or 3 days.. Time isn't the important factor, but the moment is, the feeling of utter peacefulness in that period of time! There are moments in each of my travels, that I'll never forget, some because of an exciting factor, some because of the time I took to enjoy the moment . I always try to express the moments in my pictures, to stop time in a fraction of a second , to capture a moment, I'm having ,,, I enjoy sharing them, but more importantly, love remembering the feeling and peacefulness those times brought to me!
