Dont Give Up

There are just so many scenes in this short film, that hold a great deal of meaning.
In particular, a real eye opener to me is the lack of faith, 'doubt' which is highlighted, that even then, during the time of christ's ministry, healing, and the raising of the dead, were somehow shocking and unbelievable events. Even when they saw it with their own eyes.
It makes me think of the lies we are told. How our transference of believing in a God, to whom nothing is impossible, has changed over thousands of years.
We look to so many people for answers, without looking inside. After a while they just cannot satisfy the real answers and explanations that you long for...
There is a great scene in this film when Mary Magdelen, drops everything she is doing. When the world in which she exists vanishes in the presence of someone who she knows has her answers... And there is Peter, who somehow knows he has to leave a life he is used to, a simple life, to follow a more difficult one.
There are so many times during the day when I see the lies and uselessness of the world we live in. Like two worlds. One trying to displace the real one. Who do you ever talk to this about, and who really longs to know the truth...
