TWO FRIENDS WERE WALKING <br />THROUGH THE DESERT <br />DURING SOME POINT OF THE <br />JOURNEY, THEY HAD AN <br />ARGUMENT; AND ONE FRIEND <br />SLAPPED THE OTHER ONE <br />IN THE FACE <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />THE ONE WHO GOT SLAPPED <br />WAS HURT, BUT WITHOUT <br />SAYING ANYTHING, <br />WROTE IN THE SAND <br /> <br />TODAY MY BEST FRIEND <br />SLAPPED ME IN THE FACE <br /> <br />THEY KEPT ON WALKING, <br />UNTIL THEY FOUND AN OASIS, <br />WHERE THEY DECIDED <br />TO TAKE A BATH <br /> <br />THE ONE WHO HAD BEEN <br />SLAPPED GOT STUCK IN THE <br />MIRE! AND STARTED DROWNING, <br />BUT THE FRIEND SAVED HIM. <br /> <br />AFTER HE RECOVERED FROM <br />THE NEAR DROWNING, <br />HE WROTE ON A STONE: <br /> <br />'TODAY MY BEST FRIEND <br />SAVED MY LIFE' <br /> <br />THE FRIEND WHO HAD SLAPPED <br />AND SAVED HIS BEST FRIEND <br />ASKED HIM, 'AFTER I HURT YOU, <br />YOU WROTE IN THE SAND AND NOW, <br />YOU WRITE ON A STONE, WHY? ' <br /> <br />THE FRIEND REPLIED <br />'WHEN SOMEONE HURTS US <br />WE SHOULD WRITE IT DOWN <br />IN SAND, WHERE WINDS OF <br />FORGIVENESS CAN ERASE IT AWAY. <br /> <br />BUT, WHEN SOMEONE DOES <br />SOMETHING GOOD FOR US, <br />WE MUST ENGRAVE IT IN STONE <br />WHERE NO WIND <br />CAN EVER ERASE IT' <br /> <br />LEARN TO WRITE <br />YOUR HURTS IN <br />THE SAND AND TO <br />CARVE YOUR <br />BENEFITS IN STONE. <br /> <br />THEY SAY IT TAKES A <br />MINUTE TO FIND A SPECIAL PERSON, <br />AN HOUR TO APPRECIATE THEM, <br /> A DAY TO LOVE THEM, <br />BUT THEN <br />AN ENTIRE LIFE <br />TO FORGET THEM. <br /> <br />SEND THIS TO <br />THE PEOPLE YOU'LL NEVER <br />FORGET. <br /> <br /> I JUST DID. <br /> <br />IF YOU DON'T <br />SEND IT TO ANYONE, <br />IT MEANS YOU'RE IN A <br />HURRY AND THAT YOU'VE <br />FORGOTTEN YOUR FRIENDS. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />TAKE THE TIME TO LIVE! <br /> <br />'Be kinder than necessary, for everyone you meet is fighting <br />some kind of battle'<br /><br />I wish i was as invisable as he made me feel<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/to-a-very-special-someone/
