something to ponder..

This is for you hun. =)

Chapter 48 of Eat Pray Love by Elizabeth Gilbert

EDITED 12.03am, 21st June


I exhale hotly through my nose, bull-like.
"Groceries," Richard say, "listen to me. Someday you're gonna look back on this moment of your life as such a sweet time of grieving. You'll see that you were in mourning and your heart was broken, but your life was changing and you were in the best possible place in the world for it - in a beautiful place of worship, surrounded by grace. Take this time, every minute of it. Let things work themselves out here in India."
"But I really loved him."
“Big deal. So you fell in love with someone. Don’t you see what happened? This guy touched a place in your heart deeper than you thought you were capable of reaching, I mean you got zapped, kiddo. But that love you felt, that’s just the beginning. You just got a taste of love. That’s just limited little rinky-dink mortal love. Heck, Groceries – you have the capacity to someday love the whole world. It’s your destiny. Don’t laugh.”…


p/s: Groceries referring to the author herself by one of her friend.
