Is it really difficult to forget?

Does one mistake makes a person bad forever?Is it really difficult to forget?The story began something like this:There were two friends walking in the desert. During the journey, they constantly argued back and forth. At one point, one of them smote another on the face.The man who got hit on the face suffered injury; but without saying a single word, he wrote in the sand: "Today my best friend hit me on my face".The two friends continued walking until they found an oasis. At that point, they decided to swim.The man who got hit on his face hung in quicksand and began to sink, but his friend grabbed him and saved him from drowning.And after his friend saved him from death, he wrote on a piece of rock: "Today my best friend saved my life".His friend asked him: 'Why the first time when I hit you, you had written it in the sand and now when I rescued you, you've written it on the rock?He replied back to him saying: 'When one of us hurts the other, we should write what we've done on the sand so the winds of tolerance could blow it away and erase it. However, when one of us does something good, we should write that on the rock so that even the strongest wind could not erase it!"

  • Thank you may in the kitchen :)
  • yeah, it's hard sometimes to forgive for someone destroyed your life, we want justice. but we don't want to treat people as what they did , we don't want to be like them.
    forgiving it goes against our human nature. we have to learn how to forgive others.
