Selfless Love

Have I mentioned that the Kite Runner is a powerful and moving book? It's a story of loyalty, selfless act of one and unappreciative, selfishness of another. It's about how a person can be overwhelmed by guilt that they inflicted pain on the exact person they felt guilty about. Isn't that ironic? Isn't that sad? It's also about forgiveness, kindness and redemption. I'm not rushing to finish the book because I don't want it to end. Nonetheless, I can't help myself to turn page after page. There's about a hundred pages to go.
