I just finshed reading this book. Finished it not because I consider this as the greatest bestseller. I even wonder why and how this is a bestseller....The author has published her diary, that too not very captivating for my expectation.
Then why did I start reading it at all? The title was very captivating and talks about all the three things I love to do - Eat, Pray and Love. Well not to get inot a serious criticism, I have to admit she has some brilliant sentences.
Read this " Silence and solitude are universally recognized as spiritual practices, and there are good reasons for this. Learning how to discipline your speech is a way of preventing your energies from spilling out of you through the rupture of your mouth (how very brilliant), exhausting you and filling the world with words, words, words instead of serenity, peace and bliss." So few more such sentences are scattered, just a few more. I wish she had cut down on the self analysis through out and wrote more on the above line. But I guess as readers we cannot resist reading other's personal diary if we get a chance.
Be it a celebrity or another un assuming non existant personality, secretly or openly knowing what they think and do always has a magical aura of mystery.
