D. Personal Thoughts and Feelings About the Film
My personal thoughts and feelings about the
film Life of Pi is atfirst Iam a pet lover but when it comes in wild animals
like Richard Parker.But then there are times I'm confused from the story and
character but when I understand the lesson I knew it.I believe to the brave and
courage of Pi showing in the story
because I can’t believe that theirs a survivor within 227 days .I was amazed to
the place where jellyfish are together bringing up light in the ocean.Overall,
story of Pi is ineterestingand have a moral lesson and good motivation and
example to the people
E. Values Learned/ Moral Lesson
Simple.Being faithful to
god.Why?Because god can do everything ,he can change possible to impossible and
impossible to possible .He the only one our savoir in every challenges and
frustration that our encounter and will encounter to our life’s to order to
survive like the story of life of Pi.God is everyday awake ang he knows what
gonna happen next or what gonna happen to us.Knowing god can turn impossible to
possible,it simple because god is not only our creator but also our savoir to
order to survive to order to survive to those temptation,frustration,problems
and fear.Being faithful is the simplies but most powerful weapon and armor to take those challenges even though it is
difficult.
