Kite Runner What is the irony in the first story Amir writeshow does this story epitomize the difference in character between Hassan and Amir?

Honestly after giving this question some thought, the answer that eluded me has become obviouse. The story foreshadows the entire book. In the story pain brings happiness, but the happiness is overpowered by the hurt caused to the man and the ones around him. In the book kite runner the entire story is about Amir hurting those around him to his own gain, and eventually Amir winds up hurting himself and those around him deeply. Even though in the end he does gain a preciouse jewel, Hassans son.
