3:20 "Write the bad things that are done to you in sand, but write the things that happen to you on a piece of marble." This is very beautiful for its deep meaning. Why does it says to write the bad things that happen to us in sand? So that the wind would blow it away and we won't think about it anymore. Instead, we look on the bright side of our life and write the good things that happen to us on a piece of marble. So we could cherish and remember those good moments thus being grateful.
