    Don’t give up, even if the situation seems to be harsh and impossible to survive. Having the will to survive is a key component to survival. It is the power of our mind and soul that we gather from within ourselves.

    In the story, Pi never complains to God for being placed in such a harsh and woeful situation where Death was the only result. Instead, he kept his faith in God and courageously finds the strength from within himself and grows as a person.

    The title is absolutely justified because the story is all about Aksionov who lost all hopes and just trusted God. He rejected all the State authorities and institutional justice and recognised the sole authority of God for the real culprits to be punished.

If Aksionov would have listened to her alarming words, then he would have not suffered for his life.
    3. Makar Semyonich: He is the antagonist of the story. He was the actual murderer of the merchant for which Aksionov was accused. And he was the only one who admitted that he is the true culprit at the culmination of the story.

    The theme of the story is about responsibility, hope, hardships, sincerity and staying satisfied. To the world, they are happy boys who are doing various jobs, earning a good amount of money and everything is well in their lives.

    But as we all have heard the proverb “All that glitters is not gold”, which means that though they appeared to be happy, but deep inside they were facing the bitter reality of their lives, hardships, struggles and sacrificing their happiness to bring back normalcy in the life of their tuberculosis afflicted sister.

    This story is a perfect example of “Where there is a will, there is a way”. We find the two little boys worked hard and lead a laborious life only for their left family member, Lucia. They sold wild strawberries, newspapers, acted as a tourist guides and even worked as shoe shine boys only to earn money so that they can pay for their sister’s treatment.

    They could have gained sympathy from the people around them, but they rejected the idea of begging and accepted the idea of working hard with perseverance. Even in the time of war and weapons where death and hatred were the only scene, these boys did not fail to pick up hope for the sake of his family. Instead of criticizing their fate ,they accepted their lives as a gift of God and rather than complaining about it, they kept their self respect as their top priority and worked hard.
