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 mud 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
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.” learn
to write your hurts in the sand and to carve your
benefits in stone. They
say it takes a minute to find a special
person, an hour to appreciate them, a day to love them, but then an
entire life to forget them. Take the time to live! Do
not value the things you have in your life,
but value who you have in your life!
“Be kinder than necessary, for everyone you meet is
fighting some kind of battle.”
