Life and our response

Just saw Life of Pi and the film was a great reminder of faith. I need to trust in the larger intelligence especially when everything around me is collapsing. I cannot either get disheartened and try to fix all by myself. Nor get outraged saying that I think I lived a righteous life and therefore why are these things happening to me. I need to surrender and give in. I have had enough proofs that "someone is watching over me" and that I need to do my part and (or therefore) the other part can be taken care of by someone. I cant do two people's job -God's and mine. 

Faith is very expensive. It can be earned only by putting onself at the absolute mercy of the unknown and be ready to be scarred or killed by it. But I am grateful for this reminder. Each moment I am in doubt, I need to remember these moments in the movie..the movie has an interesting dialogue..it is doubt that keeps my faith alive.
