I �ve chosen a story to remember, a story to teach in your classrooms.

It �s such a good introduction to Friendship topics. It could also be a Friendship test.

 

My students loved it . Some were with what happened , while others were against. Some even changed the ending of the story. You can ask them to find out the moral also.

It tests how great a friend you are, and whether you found real friendship or not.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.

 

Check it out and give me your opinions.

 

Hope it �s uselful!!

A story tells that two friends were walking through the desert .
During some point of the Journey they had an Argument, and one friend Slapped the other one on the face.
The one who got slapped was hurt , but without saying anything,wrote in the sand:

TODAY MY BEST FRIEND
SLAPPED ME ON 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 BENEFITS IN STONE !!!

 

Thank you for this moral story.

I would agree with the second part of the friend �s answer,as we should acknowledge a good deed, but as for the first part,well I �m not sure that it �s easy to forgive or forget something that touches our feelings.After all we are human beings, and if someone whom we love best  deceives us it will be engraved inside us no matter how hard we try to find excuses for him or her.

well, this is my point of view, and it �s open to discussion.
