The Angry Boy

There lived a very angry boy in a village. He was very upset with his anger because he used to talk very unfairly to the people in anger.

Seeing this, the boy's father called him and gave him a bag full of nails. He told him whenever you get angry, takw a nail out of it and hit that in the fence. He did exactly that.

Whenever he got angry, he would take a nail from the bag and hit it on the fence. He found that he hit 40 nails in a single day and was surprised to see this.

Gradually, he started to control his anger and one day it came that he didn't have to hit a single nail.

He told this to his father, his father told him that whenever you got angry, you hit a nail in the fence. As a result, the fence got many holes and it will never be like before. In the same way, anger only gives a wound to the people, it doesn't matter how many times you say sorry.
