There was a little boy named Rony. He was a creative and very bright kid. However, he was self-centered and the too short tempered. He gets angry easily and tells hurtful things to all during that time.
Slowly he was growing like this but his parent started concerning about his anger issues. One day Rony's father started talking with his son on this. He gave Rony a bag of Nails and a Big Hammer. He also told him, "Whenever you will feel angry again you need let it out but not on people but on our backyard fence. The fence was hard and it was really tough to put the nail in it. So the father decided that every time Rony will get angry, he has to put a nail in the fence."
The very next day, Rony started losing his temper again. By the end of the day he had put 37 nails into the fence. Yes, it means 37 times he got angry in the day.
Everyday Rony used to put nails but because it was tougher to put the nails, Rony slowly tried to control his anger instead. Then one day came when Rony didn't put any nail into the fence. Feeling happy and excited he went over to his Father and said, "Today I didn't put any nail into the fence".
Father as happy although he didn't show the same amount of happiness to Rony. He said, "It's nice, Rony! Now with everyday, you do not loose temper, you get to Pull Out one nail."
Well, many weeks passed. Finally one day the young boy was able to report proudly that all the nails were gone.
This was the point when Father was really happy. He said Rony to come along with him to the fence. He told Rony, "You have done an extremely good job. Now can you notice the holes that are left into the fence? Although you removed the nails the holes are there forever. This is exactly what happens when we feel angry and lose temper. During that time we can't decide between right and wrong and we say many hurtful things to all which becomes a scar in their life forever.
Remember a Verbal Wound is as hurtful and sometimes even more than a Physical One.
Even one word can sometimes break the lifetime of friendship and relations. It is ok to get angry sometimes but important is what you do when you are angry.
With this message, Rony understood a very important lesson of life and finally always controlled his anger and temper.
