This story is about 'desire, mistake, forgiveness, and salvation.' The only power making all of this possible is love. People feel desires throughout their lives. When desires blind us, we make mistakes of making choices we wouldn't have made. That's because we are human beings and because we have to live on and survive. It's not that we were born badly, nor did we have evil hearts. However, sometimes, they demand a harsher price than we have done. Life is about how to take responsibility for mistakes and forgive others.
