The boy and the nails It is said that a boy was known in the village with the intensity of his anger and lack of patience, to the extent that these two qualities led him into many problems, as a result of which his father decided to teach him a lesson in slowing down and controlling anger. In our wooden garden fence, whenever you feel angry at a person or situation, or you lose your temper for any reason, the boy denounced his father's request and did not understand its purpose, except that he had agreed to it, and promised his father to implement it. The boy knocked 37 lanes on the first day in the fence, and noticed that inserting the nails after each time he got angry was not an easy matter, which prompted him to try to control himself when he was angry in the next times to avoid the trouble of hammering the nails. Days passed and the boy continued with what his father had promised. However, the father and his son noticed that the number of nails that the boy hammered into the fence was decreasing day after day, until the day came when the boy was not obliged to hammer any nail into the fence, which astonished him and pleased him at the same time, as the boy learned from this experience to control his anger He controlled himself who was being provoked for the trivial reasons, so he went out cheerfully to tell his father of his achievement, the father was happy with his son, but he approached him and said: But now you, my son, have to try to remove a nail from the fence every day when you do not get angry. And he kept taking off a nail every day in which he kept his calm, until he finished removing all the nails in the fence, and upon the end of the task he told his father about that, and again his father expressed to him how happy and proud he was at his accomplishment, then he took his hand and went with him to the garden fence, And he asked him to fumble with your mother N the holes that the nails left in the wall with his hands and he said to him: Son, look now at those holes in the fence, do you think that these holes will disappear with time? The boy answered: No, my father, I left a deep imprint in the wood, so his father said: This is what the harshness of our words speaks to the hearts of others. Towards them.
