Two friends were traveling together through the desert, and at one moment in their journey, they quarreled over a foolish issue. One turned around and slapped his partner on his face.

Pulling him out of water, he checked his breathing and took a towel and covered his friend's shoulders with it.
Once recovered from his near death experience, the friend that had previously been slapped, one more time sat on the sand near a large flat rock where he chiseled: "Today my best friend saved my life!"
His friend quiet surprised asked him,” Why did you first write in the sand that I slapped you but now you chiseled in the rock that I saved your life?
With a big smile friend replied,” When a good friend offends me, I let changing sands of time erase the incident; but a good friend risks his life or does something from his heart for me, I make sure that time does not erase it nor forget it."
"Friends, do not mind the Small issues in your friendship and if you do so it might be the big mistake you are committing in your life. Friends are the valuable assets in the Balance sheet of your life, Care for them........ ..."
