A story tells that two
friends were walking
through the desert. During some point of the
journey
they had an argument, and
one friend slapped the other one in the
face.
The one who got slapped was
hurt,
but without saying anything, wrote in the sand:
TODAY MY BEST FRIEND
SLAPPED ME IN THE FACE.
They kept on walking until
they found an oasis,
where they decided to take a bath. The one who
had
been slapped got stuck in the mire and
started drowning, but the friend
saved him.
After he recovered from the near
drowning, he wrote on a
stone:
TODAY MY BEST FRIEND SAVED MY LIFE.
The friend who had slapped
and
saved his best friend asked him,
"After I hurt you, you wrote in the
sand and now, you write on a stone,
why?" The other friend replied "When
someone
hurts us we should write it down in sand where winds
of
forgiveness can erase it away. But, when someone
does something good for us,
we must engrave
it in stone where no wind can ever erase it."
