Njal´s Saga 30-38

Chapters 30-38 were much more understandable tan the others. I got things a lot better and there were a lot of important events. Fewer people are introduced this time so that was a really good thing. A thing that happened in the last chapters caught my attention. When Gunnar and Hallgerd (Gunnars wife) went to a dinner in the house of Njal and Bergthora´s house and considering Gunnar was a great friend of Njal Hallgerd started to become like jealous of him so there was Gunnar in just the m idle of the fight.

This happens to me a lot, many times when I have two good friends and they fight with each other I am in the middle of the fight and I really doubt know what to do because though I like them both I cant lean towards one side or the other. In fact that happened to me approximately 1 year ago, two of my good friends where fighting and I was just in the middle. I couldn’t spend break with one of them because the other would get mad and vice versa. It was really awkward but at the same time disturbing, because I had nothing to do with that. And the worst of all is that at the end they ended up forgiving each other and they didn’t like me as much! I was really mad, because since the beginning I had nothing to do with it, but I got over it. Something that also happens is that when you have a class with two of your friends and they don’t like each other you never know what to do when its partners or projects etc.

So in conclusion this part of the story got me very familiarized with Gunnar because I know what he is feeling! But when you really think about it when this sort of things happen the best thing to do is frist never take a side, which Gunnar did, and second back of just a bit, trust me it is better!
