>Today i wana tell a story about 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 engrave it in stone where no wind can ever erase it."
>
>
>LEARN TO WRITE YOUR HURTS IN THE SAND AND TO CARVE YOUR BLESSINGS IN STONE.
>
>
>They say it takes a minute to find a special person, an hour to appreciate them, a day to love them, but then an entire life to forget them.
>
>
>Take the time to live!

> Do not value the THINGS you have in your life. But value WHO you have in your life!
