The duel between forgiveness and pride has too much power to detract from the now, too much potential of keeping us in the past. Like children, their craziness fades a little when they don't get all the attention. I love how you bring forth this nugget throiugh a melodrama complete with suspense, victories and losses. Brilliant.
