The Shawshank Redemption
June 17, 2010
On my way home after a TAT meeting I watched the movie The Shawshank Redemption on the plane (great movie by the way). I don’t know if I’m just obsessively projecting relevancy for the search of Truth unto everything I come across, but it sure did strike a cord. After it was over I wrote the below lines as an attempt to capture the feeling it evoked:
I have a hope, a faint hope of Freedom beyond imagination,
and no matter how hopeless my staggering in the dark seems,
no matter how impossible, overwhelming and beyond reach the goal appears to be,
I can always take one more step, one more step towards Freedom,
and maybe, just maybe, one day a step I take will lead to Freedom itself…
