Kites and Running

I finished "The Kite Runner" yesterday. It was a sad story, for sure. But, it ended with hope and that's great in a world where all of the statements made are typically depressing and hopeless.

It makes me realize just how lucky I am to be a citizen of a country that isn't in civil turmoil. I am so lucky that my life hasn't been upturned by violent religious zealots intent on removing any opposition by any means necesary.

It also makes me feel very lucky to live in a country where I can readily aquire some pain meds for the migraine I'm trying to get.
