Smoke Signals

"Is it better to forgive our fathers at our age? Or at their age?"

Smoke Signals focuses on the issue of forgiveness between Victor and his father. Unlike them, my father and I get along really well, albeit without a few minor arguments. It's hard not to forgive my dad because he (along with my mom) is the one that supported me and gave me, in a sense, a better life to live than my family back in the Philippines. If he even does one thing that really bothers me, there's a good chance I'll just wave it off and forgive him. I think it is better to forgive now then later, because there may not be much time left once you realize their motives enough to forgive, like the situation between Victor and his dad.
