Transcript of Rabindranath Tagore(1861 ~ 1941)
I’ve told you two stories about what happened out on the
ocean. Neither explains what caused the sinking of the ship
and no one can prove which story is true and which is not.
In both stories, the ship sinks, my family dies and I suffer.
So, which story do you prefer?
No one has seen that floating island since. And you
won’t read about those trees in any nature book.
And yet, if I hadn’t found those shores, I would have
died.
I remember that he has as little experience with the
real world as I do. We were both raised in a zoo by the
same master. Now we’ve been orphaned, left to face
our ultimate master together. Without Richard Parker,
I would have died by now. My fear of him keeps me
alert. Tending to his needs gives my life purpose.
