I read a story named Sand and Stone. This story is talking about two people were walking in desert . suddenly in the trip they had fight, and one of them hit the other one in his face. The one who got hit was injured, but he didn’t talk, he marked in the sand: "TODAY MY BEST FRIEND SLAPPED ME IN MY FACE.” They complete walking until they found an oasis, they decided to have shower. A man, who got hit got caught in the swamp and started to go down, but the man caught him. After the man caught him from the near drowning, he wrote on a sandstone: "TODAY MY BEST FRIEND SAVED MY LIFE." The man who got hit 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 man said : "When someone hurts us, we should write it down in sand where winds of forgiveness can rub out it away. But, when someone does something good for us, we must engrave it in stone where no wind can ever erase it."
