"For you, a thousand times over. " The
words echoed (回响) in my heart long after I had finished the heartbreaking
story. Each word impressed me with the power of firmness, the power of determination,
and the power of love, whether it is from Hassan or Amir.
It's hard to use a few words to describe what
the story is about because too many things are clear, friendship, familial affection,
love, inferiority (自卑),
shyness, regret, etc. It's even harder to imagine
how the writer managed to expose so many points of human nature in just one story,
with the truth of cruelty. Unlike many other stories in which the main characters
are always perfect men or heroes. Kite Runner shows us a real man who is thirsty
for others' support, who may also become feared in the face of challenge, who will
also make big mistakes, just like most of us. In the story, we see Amir's growth
from an immature, unconfident boy to a brave man, willing to shoulder responsibilities.
But he grows up with pain and regret, and almost at the cost of his life.
The story impresses me with the cruel reality
that some mistakes take a lifetime to make up for. Some hurt which has already been
caused can never be undone. Some people, once left, may never return. So always
keep a sense of responsibilities for what you are doing, so that unnecessary hurt
can be avoided. If mistakes are made, try to make up for it at once, for you may
never have a second chance. Also, cherish people you love when they are still by
your side, for they may be away for good.
At last, I believe that the person, who is ever
promised by others with the word "For you, a thousand times over", is the luckiest guy in the world. I wish I could
have this honor too.
