Tuesday 9-1: Journal #2 As you reflect on The Kite Runner and all of Amir’s experiences throughout the novel, we draw some conclusions about the text and how different experiences in our own lives affect us.

What difference would it have made, if any, if Amir had been honest with himself and others? Is the ending happy? Why or why not?

And when we try to climb out of the wild valley into which our sin has led us, the beast of our sin comes to roar at us, making us afraid to even attempt the climb out. At one and the same time we want to grow in virtue, but we don’t want to give up our vice. As I finish reflecting on this opening Canto, I’m left with a question: how many times have I turned away from a guide sent to me by Heaven? I’m reminded of all the times when all around me seemed dark and unpleasant and I resisted, sure that this difficult path, this terrible suffering, could not be the true path. I ask God for the grace to trust him more firmly, confident that in His wisdom, even the suffering is bound up in His Mercy. Wednesday 02-03: Read and annotate Canto II and study for quiz tomorrow!
