I just finished watching The Kite Runner for the first time and was reminded of what a powerful story Khaled Hosseini told. This is a story of real life. Love, pain, heartache, abandonment, betrayal and best of all redemption. Seeing the story and remembering the vivid pictures Hosseini painted with words in his book is enough to brings tears to my eyes.
As I stop and reflect on my brief 27 years of existence I can’t help but wonder how many times I’ve passed up an opportunity for redemption, even if just a simple apology. How long have I been living in a world of self focus not paying attention to how my own story may have been hurting others.
“For you, a thousand times over.”
How many chances at redemption will I get?
