I once read a story that really makes me unforgetable of friendship.
The story goes that two friends were walking through the dersert.
During the journey they had a argument,and one friend slapped the other one in the face.
Ther one who got slapped was hurt,but without saying anything ,wrote in the sand:"Today my friend slapped me in the face."
They kept on walking until they found a oasis,where they decided to take a bath.The one who got 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 me."
His friend asked him:"After i hurt you ,you wrote in the sand and now you write on the 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 ever erase it ."
I really got a lot of feeling of it,and i sent it to all of my friends,shared with them,will you ???

What a terrific story about Sand Writing. I loved it! Thank you for such a quality post.
This is just the thing I have been looking for. Thanks again and yes, I will send it along.
This is just what our world needs, more forgiveness.
Have you ever heard the saying;
When I do right, no one remembers.
When I do wrong, no one forgets.
Your story portrays the exact opposite and love it for that.
Thanks again. Cheers.
