One day, an Indian thinker had the following question to his disciples: "Why do people cry when they are angry?"
"They cry because they lose their calm," said one of them.
"But why cry if the person is at his side?" again said the thinker.
"Well, we cry because we want the other person will listen to us, "said another pupil.
The teacher came back to ask:" So you can not talk in a low voice? "
Several other answers were given but not convinced the thinker.
Then he said: "You know why you cry at another person when you are angry? The fact is that when two people are angry, their hearts are far away. To cover this distance is necessary to shout to hear yourself. The more angry they are, the stronger will have to shout to hear each other. On the other hand, what happens when two people are in love? They do not shout, speak gently. And why? Because their hearts are very close. The distance between them is small. Sometimes their hearts are so close that not even speak, only whisper. And when love is most intense is not necessary to even whisper, just look. Their hearts are intended. That 's what happens when two people love each approach. "Finally, the thinker concluded:" When you discuss not let your hearts be turned away, do not say words that they can space out more, because there will come a day when so that the distance will not meet no more the way back. "(Mahatma Gandhi
