SAND AND STONE STORY :-
Once upon a time, there were two best friends John and James. They had known each other all their life. They kept on helping each other in different situations no matter how serious the situation. When it came time to look for a job.
They decided to travel together as well and visited many places to earn more money. They passed through various places, villages, towns, forests and they were supporting each other all the way throughout their journey. One day their travels took them across a harsh desert.
John said to James “We have limited food and water and we still have a lot of this desert left to cross. We should conserve our supplies.” James replied, “But I want some water.” John replied, “You can drink water but just a little bit. We have to save it for the rest of the desert crossing.” Also Read Short Story About Two Best Friends
