FRIENDSHIP



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 engraveit in stone where no wind can ever erased.

Saya tertarik dengan analogi yang anda pakai untuk menggambarkan keindahan persahabatan.I wish everyone can do that.Karena saat ini, banyak orang yang sanksi trhdp ketulusan yang orang lain berikan.Semoga kita termasuk dari sekian banyak orang yang menghargai persahabatan.
