The Actress’ Dilemma:
After years of hardwork and paying her “dues” a young actress won an academy award for best actress in a supporting role. The next week, she flew

to her hometown to celebrate her achievement with her family and friends. The first night of her arrival, after celebrating at her favorite

restaurant, she prepares to head home. As she walks out to the parking lot, she sees a vaguely familiar man standing beside her car. The man runs up

and hugs her telling her how proud he is of her. After releasing from his embrace she looks at the man and realizes it is her father whom she hasn’t

seen since she was 7 years old. Her father apologizes and asks to be a part of her life. Should she forgive him?
