With Christmas and New Year around the corner, I was pondering over what to write. And it was then that we decided to head over to the theatre. While we were in Bangalore, we saw "Jab Tak Hai Jaan" (It took me ages to get the name right!); with the star cast of Shah Rukh Khan and Katrina Kaif. And later, while in Mangalore, after hearing and reading about the rave reviews we went to watch the movie "Life of Pi". The life of Pi was sensational in terms of the visuals and sceneries.
Something which I would say that I found in common about the movies was one character that was played out: The character of God; to be specific, Jesus.

And in both: the theme that was focused around Jesus was on trust. While for Katrina Kaif, she trusted Jesus would protect her lover and for Pi, he believed that God would deliver him out of the ocean.
It made me think about Christmas and the story behind it. For many, Christmas brings to mind the picture of a fat Santa Claus and his reindeer drawn sled; the many gifts that they receive. But then, we mustn't forget that this is the day where not only to say Christians but the whole world regards it as the day Jesus Christ, the son of God was born.
And the story of Christmas is really a story of trust and faith.
