Karma?

Even Brad Pitt.

He played the role of Achilles in the blockbuster film Troy. A soldier, a warrior, a man who feared nothing and who could kill anyone with one swing of a sword. He was a legend, a hero. But despite all that he seemed, he was a lover who loved fiercely and who gave up his life to save the one woman he loved.

However, in one moment of rage and a lack of thought, he flared up at her and strangled her, causing her to gasp for air. He could have killed her and he nearly did. He didn't want it of course, he was just too caught up with emotions, his vision too blurred with a confusing mesh of feelings.

Oh, but how he was close to tears as he watched her leave on King Priam's chariot. His heart probably aching as he slipped a valued seashell necklace into her hands as a parting gift. His pride melted away as he made his most sincere apologies for all that he had done for he was already feeling the stinging pain of regret.

Was Achilles the great all that was potrayed?
