    NAIL IN THE FENCE


    [​IMG]



    Make sure you read all the way down to the last sentence. (Most importantly the last sentence)



    There once was a little boy who had a bad



    temper.



    [​IMG]



    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


    [​IMG]


    of the fence.


    The first day the boy had



    [​IMG]


    driven 37 nails into the fence. Over the next



    [​IMG]



    few weeks, as he learned to control his






    anger, the number of nails hammered daily


    [​IMG]


    gradually dwindled down. He discovered






    it was easier to hold his temper than to


    drive those nails into the fence.


    [​IMG]


    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



    [​IMG]



    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 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.


    Friends are very rare jewels, indeed. They



    [​IMG]



    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.'


    Show your


    friends how much you care. Send this to


    everyone you consider a FRIEND, even if


    it means sending it back to the person who


    sent it to you. If it comes back to you,


    then you'll know you have a circle of friends.



    [​IMG]



    YOU ARE MY FRIEND AND I AM HONORED!



    Please forgive me if I have ever left a hole.
