Found this nice story in Internet, could
not stop myself from sharing. Story credit goes to author.
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.”
