Part 2 Images
· This image is of a Frenchman. While lost at sea, Pi encounters another castaway in the same situation as him. Pi is tricked by this man when he tries to kill Pi. I chose this image because it represents trust. You can trust no one when in a life or death situation or when you are competing with someone for the same thing.
· This image is of a tiger. Pi is terrified of tigers and yet he ends up with one as his companion. During the entire journey Pi is able to overcome his fear of Richard Parker. This image represents that to overcome your fears you must first encounter them.
· This image is of a lifeboat. The lifeboat that Pi is on becomes his home/ shelter. It allows him to stay alive while travelling through the pacific. This image represents safety. We all have a place / object that we use to feel safe when we are feeling “lost.”
· This image is a representation of God. When Pi feels he has nothing left to lose and is feeling lost and alone, he turns to God. This image represents faith. As a Catholic I turn to God when I’m feeling in need of some faith.
· This image is of a dolphin. While on the lifeboat Pi is visited by many dolphins who keep him company. This image represents friendship. Even in the hardest of situations we can always find someone / something that will ease our way through.
· This image is of a whistle. Pi uses this object in order to train Richard Parker, and let him know who number one and number two are. This image represents power, which is a worldwide problem. It can be good, like in Pi’s case, or it can be bad when it gets to your head and you start taking advantage of it.
