Eat Pray Love

Eat Pray Love by Elizabeth Gilbert is really hot among women in early thirties recently. I found that many of my friends read this book. From the title of the book, we know it is all about Eat(in Italy), Pray(on India) and Love(in Bali).

Frankly I have not finish the book yet. But there is a chapter she wrote about Depression and Loneliness that really touch the bottom of my heart. I know the sorrow she wrote about and it similarly happened to me a few years ago before I met my husband. In the chapter, she asked why she ruin her marriage, why she messed up things with her boyfriend, where she was the night she turn thirty and why things have gone sour since then, why she is not at home living in a nice house and raising nice children like any respectable woman her age should be, where she will end up in her old age if she keeps living this way.....

I was lucky that I did not face as much problem as she faced, and I was in my late twenties that time. I am glad that I have my dad and some friends who help me to get through these. I learn to appreciate things around me and I thank God who always stay with me and let me met with my husband (who brought me back to the happiness life that I think I deserve for). I am totally out of the sorrow now, and I look things differently since then.

I pray to God for those in suffering, please help them towards the path of sunshine.
