Read 2 states some months before ...The novel could not impress me as previous masterpieces of Chetan ... but still i remember one incident from the book ....when the Priest made understand the Krish( Hero of 2 states) the imporatance of Forgiveness ... It was something like this .... Remove the bags of anger, pain & forgive people because it will be good for you only .....& today read ( Still reading the book :P ) a paragraph from Shantaram (Bit modified) .....
"What characterise the human race more, cruelty or the capacity to feel shame for it? ... but it is not cruelty or the capacity to feel shame for it chracterises the human race. Its forgiveness that makes us what we are... Without forgiveness, out species would have annihilated itself in endless retributions ... Without forgiveness, there would be no History...Without that hope, there would be no art, every work of art is in some way the act of forgiveness ...Without that dream, there would be no love, every act of love is in some way a promise to forgive ... We live on because we can love, & we love because we can forgive"
What's going on ? Why these things are bothering me ....Why when Forgiveness comes i do stuck everytime .... Whom i have not forgiven yet ? Do i know ? I know ...may be ... Am i denying that i couldn't forgive the person yet ... Good Omens are again wispering " FORGIVE please.... Its good for you." ....but Is it in my hand ? Am i really that good ? I dont think so ....But what's wrong in that ... I am quite young to forgive, don't you think so ? ...May be i need more time ...may be i need to grow up more to do that .... may be i need to be more mature .... but one thing is for sure, It's not that easy as it seems .... neither now nor then !!!
