In the past few evenings I have watched two movies, The Kite Runner about Afghanistan and Invictus about South Africa and Nelson Mandela. Both are excellent, as most of you probably already know.
But my brain is having a difficult time. Or maybe it’s my heart. How can there be a world with so much evil and yet some people with so much good?
Maybe in between the two I should have watched a romantic comedy — or something with Jack Black in it.
We just saw a live production of The Kite Runner on Tuesday. So amazing. Having read the book, I knew the story. The two girls sitting behind us were sobbing out loud at the end. Probably hadn’t read the book.
I have not read the book despite having had it in the read these next collection for some time. I’ll get to it.
I really liked Invictus. I was pleasantly surprised that it was about much more than rugby.
