What is atonement? Atonement is satisfaction or reparation for a wrong or injury; amends.
I think atonement for past sins and mistakes are possible depending on the people involved in the situation. It would have to be sincere and not half-hearted though. All people involved would have to help each other find atonement. I do however think you can find atonement in certain situations easier than others. With Amir and Hassan's situation I think that it would be a lot harder to find atonement with one another because Amir let it go for so long. With my mistake it was easier to find atonement because one I live with them and two I have a kind heart and sometimes speak before I think things through. My parents forgave me because I was there blood and I was younger, not that being younger excuses it but me and my parents found atonement with each other. I think atonement should be sought in every mistake and situation because then you don't have to live with the "what if?" feeling. I am realizing now that I am getting older that atonement is easier to find in many situations.
