The Lesson���
There once was a little boy who had a bad temper.
His father gave him a bag of nails and told him
that every time he lost his temper,
he must hammer a nail into the back of the fence.
The first day the boy had driven 37 nails
into the fence!
Over the next few weeks, as he learned to
control his anger, the number of nails hammered
daily gradually dwindled down.
He discovered it was easier to hold his
temper than to drive nails into the fence.
Finally, the day arrived 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 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.
He said "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 these.
You can put a knife in a man and draw it out but
it won't matter how many times you say
you're sorry, the wound is still there".
PLEASE FORGIVE ME IF I HAVE
EVER LEFT A HOLE IN YOUR FENCE.
Friends and family are very rare jewels indeed.
They make you smile and encourage
you to succeed.
They lend an ear, they share words of praise
and they always want to open
their hearts to us.
