In A Tale of Two Cities by Charles Dickens, a variety of themes are portrayed. Dickens relates his novel to our everyday life, filled with goodness, morals, and love. Love has been infamous for its ability to cause drastic changes in lives and behaviors this is no exception for Sydney Carton. Religions have always taught of how to forgive wrong doings, and give others a second chance much like how Carton eventually does. Love finds a way into his heart, and it weakens his policies and beliefs, but brings out the goodness within himself that he knows exists but never let it grow. In the end, he redeems himself in such a way, that his motives for his actions have made a complete 180turn. He also learns the magnitude of how great a simple good deed can be, and how much happiness it can bring others. .

In religion, our Creator tells us that we are forgiven and in Christianity, the bible says: God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him [John 3:16-17]. God gave humans a second chance to prove themselves to him, and if God is willing to do it, then we should do the same for ourselves.
