One day there were two friends taking a journey
During a point of the journey they had an argument, and one friend slapped
the other one in the face.
The one who was slapped, without saying a word stopped knelt down,
and 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 swim.
The one who had been slapped got stuck in the mire
and started drowning, but his friend pulled him out of the mire and 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 his friend and then saved his best friend life
asked him, "After I slapped you, you wrote in the sand and now,after I saved you,
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."
