Sand and Stone

Via email~~~~

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 drowing, but the friend saved him.

After he recovered from the near drowing, 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
Blessings in stone.

Do not value the THINGS you have in your life, but value
WHO you have in your life!
