WANNA OVERCOME THE SHORT TEMPERAMENT??


Once upon a time there was a farmer .He had a son who was very short tempered .As a result ,he would get into arguments and fights and as a result spoilt relationships.The farmer decided to teach him a lesson.He told his son that every time he gets angry,he should hammer a nail into a very beautiful table that the family owned.

The first day the son had to hammer 28nails and after dinner,he told his father about it.The next day,he was more conscious about his anger and he had to hammer in only 20 nails.Finally,there came a day when he did not have to hammer a single nail.He went to his father beaming from ear to ear.His father was very happy .He went to his father beaming from ear to ear.His father was very happy.He said “son,now for every anger free day that you have ,take out one nail.”

The son did that and soon,he had taken out all the nails.He went back to his father and told him that he had taken out all the nails.His father was again very happy and together they went to the beautiful table.The farmer made him stand three feet away from the table and asked him to examine it.He told the boy how disfigured the table looked with all the holes in it.

“It will never be the same again.When you say things in anger ,they will leave scras like these.No matter how sorry you feel later on,the hurt will linger.Things said in anger are as bad as causing physical wounds.”

Scratch your minds and find out the moral and work on it.!!
