However, one day, two friends had an awkward relationship because of one of them's fault. One child has remorse and sadness in his heart, while the other child has faint pain and helplessness in his heart.
Because of that misunderstanding and anxiety, that stubbornness and cowardice, that suspicion and speculation, one finally refused to bow his head and apologize until his friend's house moved away, and he regretted hiding behind the car and crying, while the other drifted away heartbroken.
The days we used to be together can't be repeated, but everything in the past won't really pass. When the past is as light as clouds and as heavy as fog, it becomes a lingering regret in his heart.
Let's walk into The Kite Runner, a highly respected and recommended book, and this touching story about friendship and love, loyalty and betrayal, and self-redemption. ...
Decades of life, what has happened can not be erased, but in the face of the unknown, it is full of hope and challenges.
The story begins with a phone call, and slowly unfolds with the protagonist's memories. It describes the love, injury and redemption between three generations of several families in Afghanistan, and also shows us the deep suffering and grief brought by the war to ordinary people.
When reading, the feelings are sincere and the language is simple, as if someone is slowly telling you a long story in your ear. This story makes you feel deja vu, and you have even merged with the protagonist's consciousness, either happy or sad, or sad or brave.
The author of this book is Khaled Housainy, who graduated from the Department of Medicine at the University of California, San Diego and has been a physician for more than ten years. In 2003, he published his first novel, The Kite Runner. In 2006, he won the first humanitarian award of the United Nations and served as the goodwill ambassador of the United States to UNHCR, providing humanitarian assistance in Afghanistan through the Khaled Housainy Foundation he established.
Well, after the synopsis of the story and the author's brief introduction, I will introduce the book from the following three parts.
The first part is the Afghan Spring.
This part focuses on the story that Master Amir and Hassan, the servant's child, grew up together as teenagers.
An unexpected phone call evoked a long memory of the protagonist Amir more than 20 years ago.
In this land that was once full of prosperity and unburned wars, Amir has unforgettable memories and the best and happiest teenage time he spent with Hassan. ...
There are two little boys who grew up together, eating the milk of the same wet nurse, living in the same yard, sharing happiness and playing practical jokes together.
Although one master and one servant, this does not prevent their friendship from going deep into the bone marrow. They live happily like brothers.
But one day, as always, this peace and happiness was hit hard. As the master, Amir witnessed Hassan being forcibly inserted by the cruel pervert assef to save him. This is painful and ugly.
And because of fear and cowardice, he actually watched things happen without stopping them.
From that moment on, the intimate relationship between them was broken, and some hidden subtle emotions gradually emerged.
Moreover, the ugly side of Amir's human nature was exposed at this time. He was at a loss because he made a big mistake, but he was ignorant and transferred this emotion to Hassan, who was in a humble position. He constantly bullied Hassan, and even framed Hassan for stealing watches and money, forcing Hassan and his son to migrate.
Amir fell into a deep sense of guilt, feeling that the devil had seized his throat, and Hassan left the place where he had lived since childhood because of what he had done.
Amir watched Hassan be insulted but didn't dare to stop his ugly memories. He tried to forget, but this painful memory was always fixed in a corner of his heart and could not be erased.
Love and betrayal, hurt and guilt, spread and tortured him for half his life.
Amir and Hassan were born without a mother.
Amir's mother died in childbirth, so his father was the only relative in his life. The first word he will say is "Dad".
Five days after Hassan was born, his mother followed a group of gypsy artists. He is one year younger than Amir, and the first word Hassan can say is Amir.
They both eat the same milk, and their father told them that people who eat the milk of the same wet nurse are brothers.
Hassan regarded Amir as his best friend and closest relative since childhood, and regarded Amir more important than himself.
He took all the responsibility for Amir's pranks and troubles. When Amir was bullied, he summoned up his courage and stood up.
When Amir fights kites, he is willing to chase the kite that represents honor for Amir. In the face of injury, he desperately wanted to protect the kite Amir wanted.
For you, a thousand times. This is his oath to Amir.
As an adult, he also maintained this kindness and loyalty, and died at the gunpoint of the Taliban in order to protect Amir's home.
Good people are kind after all, and loyal people are always loyal.
Childhood friendship transcended everything, and Hassan made a final contribution to Amir, and this time, it was life.
Aesop said, "Disasters can prove the truth of friends."
I believe Hassan's kindness engraved in his bones and his true feelings towards his friends are enough to touch every reader. What do you want in your life to get this friend?
It is this timeless friendship that makes everyone's life warm enough, and it is this warmth that keeps everyone away from the haze and becomes a kind person.
The second part, fight and flee.
Suffering from the war, Amir and his father fled to the United States after a difficult journey and started a new life.
On the way to escape, Amir witnessed the cruelty of human nature and the fragility of life.
The upright and selfless father still stood up for the couple who met by chance regardless of life and death. Mo Ye, who hurt Hassan, also suffered the pain that Hassan suffered. In the end, he did not survive the sinister journey and died on the road. His father shot himself, and his fate was another cycle.
When I first arrived in America, the joy of freedom transcended all difficulties. Life began to be calm and boring, and Amir felt relieved and happy.
Here, he got his father's wholehearted love, saw his father's need for him, and saw the courage and greatness flowing in his father's blood;
Here, I met his beloved and dear Suraya and formed a happy family.
Here, Amir read and wrote, realizing his dream of becoming a writer.
Life is calm and content. The only fly in the ointment is that they cannot have children of their own. The family believes that this may be fate.
Although this does not hinder their happiness, in the dead of night, Amir can still feel the desire and powerlessness of wanting a child.
Because of the war, many Afghans also fled to the United States, but although people are here, their pride in their bones, their defense of honor and their loyalty to human nature have never changed.
This is manifested in the whole process of Amir's father from illness to death.
In the face of cruel wars and dead bodies everywhere, living is hope.
Only when people have experienced heavy suffering and pain can they feel happiness more deeply, experience happiness and grasp happiness.
Even if life calmed down, did Amir and his father get the happiness they wanted?
Although life began to become orderly, everything seemed impeccable, and they began to take the right way home, but their souls could never get real peace and happiness.
The vague pain is rooted in their hearts, and the ripples on the lake of souls tell them that all this is wrong, and all this comes from the mistakes they made and the regrets they left in their lives.
The more you try to hide it, the more exposed it is. This kind of remorse and guilt is slowly eroding their conscience.
In that land where the smoke of war has not disappeared, there is their past, which can't be solved for a lifetime.
What you owe, you have to pay back.
The third part, return to Kabul.
Because Amir and his father's friend Rahim Khan are about to die, Amir decided to meet this friend by phone before he died, and thus embarked on a journey of courage and redemption.
Meeting Rahim Khan made Amir hear a shocking news. He and Hassan are half brothers.
Shocked, ashamed, miserable and unable to accept the truth immediately, Amir recalled the darkest and ugliest part of his memory.
Rahim Khan said: "When evil deeds lead to good deeds, that is the real salvation."
My father did good deeds all his life, built a compassionate home, helped others and prayed for atonement for himself. At the same time, he was respected and loved by others.
Thinking of his father's last wish and everything Hassan had done for himself and even his life, Amir decided to accept Rahim Khan's request and go back to Kabul to save Hassan's child, Little Solabo.
This time, the future is uncertain, and good or bad luck is unpredictable. Amir overcame his cowardice and fear with his greatest courage.
After Amir returned to Kabul with the help of Rahim Khan, he saw devastated Afghanistan and devastated Kabul, and he could hardly see the shadow of his former happy life.
The war led to the collapse of buildings and the destruction of streets, and the prosperity of the past was gone forever.
A large number of children have become orphans, the streets are full of beggars, and the Taliban are screaming and patrolling, ready to hurt and kill, trampling on human dignity.
People live in white terror and don't know when the next bullet will fall on them.
Children in orphanages have enough to eat and wear warm clothes, and they have to be humiliated and betrayed to the Taliban in exchange for a little money for another child to eat.
Amir went alone to save little Solabo who was taken away from the orphanage by the Taliban.
Fear and surprise, assef, hurt Hassan, and they were also his greatest fears when he was a teenager.
Now, he continues to hurt Hassan's son shamefully.
I can remember the past vividly, but his responsibility and courage made him fight to the death with assef knowing that it was impossible to win. When he was dying, Solabo shot assef in the eye with a slingshot, saved Amir, and finally escaped from the wolf's den.
But Solabo, who escaped from the magic cave, didn't want to go to the orphanage again. Amir decided to adopt him and bring him back to America.
After some twists and turns, even halfway, Solabo thought that he would be sent to an orphanage, lost his desire for life and chose to commit suicide.
But in the end, Amir brought Solabo home.
If he and his wife get the treasure, they must wait slowly, waiting for Solabo to open his heart and find hope and courage in life again.
The ups and downs of the story, the ups and downs of the protagonist's heart, and the progression of layers, can't help but sigh that fate makes people feel that they have such a strong power to re-recognize and improve themselves.
Amir finally chose to face his heart bravely, and worked hard to repay it, to pursue his inner thoughts and perfect personality.
This is the salvation of life, not only for Solabo but also for Amir's father, Amir himself and Amir's family.
This is also the continuation of life-long love, the love of father and son, the love of brothers and the love of friends.
Throughout their lives, people still feel love with love, repay kindness with kindness, and exchange loyalty for loyalty.
No matter in peacetime or wartime, human nature will never be erased, but love always exists.
I want to ask, when one day we make a big mistake, are we willing to repent and start over, and spend our whole lives making up for this regret?
If our hearts have been occupied by regrets and regrets, do we still have the courage to get out of this cage?
If there is no light in our life and our sky is only gloomy, will we still chase the sun and the brightest stars?
If we are stuck in mire and deep pool, do we still have enough strength to walk to Pinglu and Wan Li?
If our life is full of war, thorns and suffering, will we give up our hope and firm friendship?
I think each of us has been pursuing all our lives, the belief and support for survival, and the pursuit of a kind and upright soul.
Pursuing dreams, pursuing the blue sky and pure land in my heart, pursuing truth, pursuing the most loyal friendship and the warmest heart.
With these, we can be born meaningfully and get noble peace.
