Eat Pray Love - DONE!

Eat Pray Love Film Tie in EditionEat Pray Love Film Tie in Edition by Elizabeth Gilbert

My rating: 4 of 5 stars


This book needs to be thoroughly read in order to unearth the gems. Among my friends who didn't like it, didn't "get" it, or HATED IT, most got hung up on whether Gilbert deserved to have and write about the feelings she experienced in her divorce and recovery. This was my second reading after receiving the book 4 years ago; the timing for me was perfect and Liz Gilbert "spoke" to me.

What I'm reading now...

Eat Pray Love Film Tie in Edition

I'm on page 176 of Eat Pray Love Film Tie in...: Faith is walking face-first and full-speed into the dark. If we truly know all the answers in advance as to the meaning of life and the nature of God and the destiny of our souls, our belief would not be a leap of faith and it would not be a courageous act of humanity; it would just be...a prudent insurance policy. page 175

A happy find from the beach house....

Breakfast with BuddhaBreakfast with Buddha by Roland Merullo

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


A lovely book, fun and inspiring! Picture George Clooney as Otto, Anthony Quinn (as he was in the 60's) as Rinpoche, and perhaps Laura Linney as Cicelia. More important, Merullo's presentation of his spiritual philosophy seemed to underscore what I have been unable to articulate. I'll read this again in the future!
