Reply: Consoling desert for loneliness
and tears
Two men knelt and prayed God
A Missionary In Marrakesh
Noticed a man lying, stroking sand
Missionary: desert reminds man’s true
size
Missionary asked for reason
Had morning walk in a desert
Now desert weeping for blaspheming
against God
Mountains help to meditate and feel
closer to God
Next day spring bubbled up there
The people called the place ‘THE WELL
OF THE DESERT’S TEARS.’

•A missionary used to go for a walk
every morning in the desert of
Marrakesh in Morocco.
Everyday he noticed a man lying down,
with his ears pressed to the ground and
stroking the sand with one hand.

8.
The man replied that he offered the
desert company and consolation for its
loneliness and tears.
Intrigued by this strange behavior, he
enquired the man.

9.
The missionary asked the man to tell the
desert that it is performing an important
duty.
Moreover, he told that the desert wept
for its infertility and being useful to no
one.

10.
The sand of desert indicates equality of
human.
The vast open desert made him realize
man’s true size and how small we are
compared with god.

11.
Its mountain helps the missionary to
meditate and makes him feel being
closer to the Creator.

12.
The man told him that the desert still
wept for spending thousands of years
being unaware of its role in the world
and wasted all time blaspheming god
and it’s fate.
The very next day he found the man in
the same place and position.

13.
They prayed to their own god who has
always been the same god.
Being a Muslim the man turned toward
Mecca and prayed.
Being a Catholic, the missionary put his
hands together and prayed.

14.
The following day the missionary found
the place where the man used to
embrace wet and a small spring had
started bubbling up there.
The Bedouin, the inhabitants of the city,
built a well and called it ‘THE WELL OF
THE DESERT’S TEARS’.

• It is a faith that anyone who drinks
water from its well will find way for joy
out of his sufferings
