Usually I read personal growth books or political thrillers. I haven’t read a book like this in quite some time. It isn’t like I wanted the story to go on. I felt complete in its ending and feel expanded for having the experience. I felt the realness and struggle of the narrator in searching and finding his soul’s longing for redemption. I felt his pain, his sorrows and his pain. A real journey that started in Afghanistan and led to America.

Sometimes it’s that experience of pain that leads you to that next level. It’s listening to your heart..It’s being guided…It’s trusting…It’s forgiving others and most of all yourself. Sometimes we can’t make sense of it but just have to accept it. And that’s the way I felt. Many questions and experiences. Perhaps the most profound message was how important it is to forgive yourself. And that longing for redemption that you are seeking leads you to your higher truth. So that’s how I felt last night when I finished the Kite Runner. I feel expanded for having the experience and ready for more.

Journey On
