Something to think about
There was a little boy with a bad temper. His father gave him a bag of
nails and told him that every time he lost his temper, to hammer a nail in
the back fence.
The first day the boy had driven 37 nails into the fence. Then it
gradually dwindled down. He discovered it was easier to hold his temper
than to drive those nails into the fence. Finally the day came when the
boy didn't lose his temper at all. He told his father about it and the
father suggested that the boy now pull out one nail for each day that he
was able to hold his temper.
The days passed and the young boy was finally able to tell his father that
all the nails were gone. The father took his son by the hand and led him to
the fence. You have done well, my son, but look at the holes in the fence.
The fence will never be the same. When you say things in anger, they
leave a scar just like this one. You can put a knife in a man and draw it
out, it won't matter how many times you say I'm sorry, the wound is still
there. A verbal wound is as bad as a physical one.
Please take a minute of your time and think about this, thank you.
