Loved "The Kite Runner"- both the book and the movie and absolutely love this quote by Rumi. You have written an article that everyone needs to read. I keep writing on the same themes. We torment ourselves all our lives without realizing that it is all okay; a part of our human experience and there is always a way forward. In fact, the only way is forward after dropping the guilt, the mistakes, healing from it and paying it forward. Beautiful article.
