Measuring distance between Hearts..

A very nice story.  Read on.

 A saint asked his disciples, 'Why do we shout in anger?

 Why do people shout at each other when they are upset?'

 His disciples thought for a while, one of them said,

 'Because we lose our calm, we shout for that.'

 'But, why do you shout when the other person is just

 next to you?' asked the saint. 'Isn't it

 possible to speak to him or her with a soft voice? Why do

 you shout at a person when you're angry?'

 Disciples gave some other answers but none satisfied the

 saint.

 Finally he explained, 'When two people are angry at

 each other, their hearts distance a lot. To cover that

 distance they must shout to be able to hear each other. The

 angrier they are, the stronger they will have to shout to

 hear each other through that great distance.'

 Then the saint asked, 'What happens when two people

 fall in love? They don't shout at each other but talk

 softly, why? Because their hearts are very close. The

 distance between them is very small...'

 The saint continued, 'When they love each other even

 more, what happens? They do not speak, only whisper and they

 get even closer to each other in their love. Finally they

 even need not whisper, they only look at each other and

 that's all. That is how close two

 people are when they love each other.

 'MORAL' said the saint: 'When you argue do not

 let your hearts get distant, do not say words that distance

 each other more, else there will come a day when the

 distance is so great that you will not find the path to

 return!'
