Warning: Spoilers
Most people wrote negative comments and opinions about the movie "Eat Pray Love". Some say that it's a story about a girl who particularly has "everything" in life but is never contented with it. For some, Liz' life was perfect as it is. A good husband and a potential to have a great family, a best friend who understands, etc. and find her selfish for neglecting all this things for egotistical reasons. I, on the other hand, sees it the other way around. Those who threw negative feedback about this movie doesn't fully understand the quintessence of bareness. Here's a little spoiler: In this movie, Liz broke off her marriage with Stephen which is one of the main reasons why this movie got only a passing rating. Liz did not leave her husband because she didn't love him, she left because she realized that the love she had for him pushed her nearer to live a life filled only with "idealistic" comfort. She had realized that the life she had in New York was the kind of existence of a person lived with a soul of emptiness. Sadly, Liz was the only one brave enough to admit this bitter fact and was the only one who had the courage to face it. Would she have stayed then it was absolute that things would have gotten out of hand as their marriage passes by.

I think this movie has a great impact in each one of us. If you dig deeper into the story, then you'll realize that if you find truth in your life, may it through be an external or internal journey, it will help you live a life of content and satisfactorily. An existence lived with a life of balance.
