Why I Don't "Eat Pray Love"

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0879870/
So I feel like sharing a quick thought about a movie I once saw. The movie is "Eat Pray Love" I understand the book was good and a very "woman take charge of her life" kind of story. Stories like that do need to be told but the movie is something else.


Yeah. It wasn't really what I hoped it to be. The whole "I'm sad and need to experience life before I start showing some wrinkles" was lame. It was like she was saying all her life up until now was a waste. I totally don't agree with that train of thought. Also I thought it was lame that she just slept with anything with male parts. Then turned around and wanted to find enlightenment. You don't find that by living in fancy rich houses. "OMG I must stop working, live in luxury houses, eat the best organic food and have unsafe intercourse. And then I will be happy and know my place in the world." 

This is just my opinion of a movie and some viewer might have gotten more out of it than me. Great! I'm happy you enjoyed it but if I was in her shoes I wouldn't have wasted my time feeling sorry for myself. I might have found enlightenment sooner and through everything I saw/experienced/felt. 

I have already found enlightenment in my life and the only far-off-place I've ever been to was Canada.

Enjoy!
