Don’t Hurt Your Friend by Words

 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, he should 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. His father was very happy and went to the wholesale replica watch market to buy a piece of replica vacheron constantin watch for the boy. He suggested the boy to 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 led him to the fence and said, " Good, 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. It won't matter how many times you say I'm sorry, the wound is still there. Friends are a very rare jewel, indeed.” The boy felt guilty and gave back the vacheron constantin replica to his father for his sorry.
