THE TWO BROTHERS

The two brothers!

 

  Here is the story of two brothers who loved each other a lot and lived in perfect harmony in their firm ... until ... A conflict broke out between them. The two brothers lived with their work fields. They all grew and harvested together. They had everything in common.

It all began with an unfortunate misunderstanding between them .... But gradually, the gap is dug until there was a lively discussion between them .... Then a painful silence that lasted several weeks.

One day, someone knocked at the door of Louis, the eldest brother. He was a handyman who was looking for work .... Some repairs to do ...?

- "Yes, he replied, I have work for you. You see, on the other side of the creek saw my younger brother. A few weeks ago, he gravely offended me and our relationship was broken. I'll show him that I also take my revenge. You see these stones beside my house? "I want you to build a wall two meters high, because I never want to see."

The man replied: "I think I understand the situation."

The man helped the visitors to gather all the equipment working and then went abroad leaving him alone for a week.

A few days later when he returned to the city, the handyman had finished his work. But what a surprise! Louis was totally shocked.

Instead of a wall two meters high, there was rather a bridge.

Precisely at this moment, the younger brother left his house and ran to Louis, exclaiming: - "You're really great! Building a bridge from what I've done, I'm proud of you!

While the brothers were celebrating their reconciliation, the handyman took up his tools to leave.

- "No, wait! He said they. Here there is work for you." But he replied: "I'd like to stay but I have other bridges to build!

  • thanks dear MONIKA and AZAM,
    yes indeed revenge is not the way ......the best thing is to be calm and think positively .
  • Hi dear Atika,
    It's a sheer fact that having the grudge is not an acceptable attribute.when we face with this situation we underestood that the result wouldnt have been good.so the best way is to keep calam& to think deeply.taking a revenge is an easy way to get rid of the problem but it's not the effective way to solve the problem !
    tnx 4 sharing !
    cheers !
