write in the sand


a story tells that 2 friends were walking through the desert. during some point in the jourey, they got into an argument and one friend got slapped in the face by the other. the one who got slapped was hurt but not saying anything, wrote in the sand, 'today my best friend slapped me'. they kept on walking until they found an oasis and they decided to take a bath. the one who got slapped before was drowning and the friend saved him. after he recovered, he carved in the stone, 'today, my best friend saved my life'.

when someone hurts us, we should write it in the sand where winds of forgiveness can take it away, but when someone does something good for us, engrave it in stone where no winds could carry it away.
