So for the past few days ‘Eat Pray Love’ has been playing. And well, I’ve been watching it and I thought I should blog about it. This is because at one point in our lives we feel like everything is moving so fast but we are left behind and that feeling sucks. I should know. Anyway, the point of the movie was to let a person see the world differently. To let you feel that when your heart breaks, it’s not the end of the world. That when you get hurt it’s okay to feel lonely and wounded and to blame yourself, but to remember that at some point you should stop and realize that you deserve to be happy. So Liz is a woman that has been recently divorced and is trying to find herself again, as do most of us (married or not). She realize how sad her life is and how empty it was. Well, can you blame her? So she went to Rome, India and Bali. Her purpose was to find her ‘appetite’ for life and to connect with herself again and not to be afraid anymore. Along the way she learned a lot and met wonderful people. But at the end of the day she was still alone and disconnected. 

Now most of us feel this way. And as the year comes to a close it is important to consider what we have done and what we should do with our lives. Maybe we can’t go to other countries like Liz but we can definitely find and reconnect with ourselves on our own (without spending to much). It is not a matter of being able to make the right decision, but making something out of your life and to be happy. Most of all finding that one special thing that will make you want to wake up everyday feeling like you are on top of the world. 

Being in love is such a wonderful feeling, but it can also crush you and cause pain to every bit of your being. But in the end it isn’t love if it didn’t hurt. The sad bit about this is that when it finally ends we are so afraid of loving again because we might get hurt (this, I know so well). In any case a heartbreak is not the end of the world. The world will continue to spin with or without us. So maybe the best thing to do is just let things happen on their own. Don’t control it, just let go and have fun with your life. I have never learned a more valuable lesson than letting go. When you’ve finally let go you will start to see things clearly and appreciate everything. And this is the most wonderful feeling in the world. 

And probably the most important thing to do when you feel lost and confused is to pray. Sometimes there is just no one who understands you and you feel like killing yourself cause no one cares, but there is someone who always does; God. Just pray and let go of everything. Just let God do His thing and everything will be alright.

In everything that you’ve been through this year just remember that those things happened for a reason. And I’d like to share my favorite motto “What doesn’t kill you will only make you stronger”. So if you’re still alive and reading this maybe you should reblog it and let everybody know that being alive right now is a sign of strength. Just be happy for being alive. Don’t worry about the past or think about the future, just be happy about the present. 

This 2012 do anything you want to do and be everything you want to be. And don’t forget to be Happy. Enjoy every moment of it. Don’t be afraid to gain weight (lose the guilt for heave’s sake!). Live. Fall in love. Travel. And be Happy. 

Happy New Year Everyone.
