Daffodils in Big Fish..Tim Burton's "Big Fish" and the book "Life of Pi" are very similar in that they both are a manifestation of people telling their life stories, leaving it up to their audience to determine whether those stories are based on true facts, just imagination, or both.
Telling stories is a big part of dating as well. It's the initial process of getting to know somebody as it provides information on who we are and the choices we make in life. And as it's only natural that when you like somebody, you want to make a good first impression, there's the potential that the real story gets a little decoration to make it look better. That's not necessarily a bad thing; don’t we all want to be entertained? I therefore think that the final question in "Life of Pi" with regards to which version of the story is the better one is a rhetorical question.
My stories from last week include meetings with women I don't get, I can't get or I couldn't retain. Even decoration wouldn't make any of those stories entertaining.
For the record, I just want to state that all the entries in this blog are based on real stories... :)
