The Physics of Quest

― Elizabeth Gilbert ( Eat, Pray, Love)

“I've come to believe that there exists in the universe something I call "The Physics of The Quest"- a force of nature governed by laws as real as the laws gravity or momentum. And the rule of Quest Physics maybe goes like this:

 "If you are brave enough to leave behind everything familiar and comforting (which can be anything from your house to your bitter old resentments)

and set out on a truth-seeking journey(either externally or internally),

and if you are truly willing to regard everything that happens to you on that journey as a clue, 

and if you accept everyone you meet along the way as a teacher, 

and if you are prepared - most of all -to face (and forgive) some very difficult realities about yourself....

then truth will not be withheld from you."
