There once was a little boy who had a bad temper. 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 fence. The first day the boy had driven
37 nails into the fence. Over the next few weeks as he learned to control his anger, the number of nails
hammered daily, 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. He told his
father about it and the father suggested that the boy now pulls 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 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.” Moral: 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. Make sure you control your
temper the next time you are tempted to say something you will regret later. Bhola owns a donkey
called Khandya. Bhola is a very tolerant and kind master. The donkey is lazy and is always finding ways
to avoid work. Once while returning with loads of salt on his back, Khandya falls in the river. He realizes
that the fall has lessened the weights of the sacks as the salt has dissolved in the water. The next few
days Khandya purposely falls into the water every day. Bhola is unhappy at the way Khandya is behaving
because he is losing money in the process. He decides to teach Khandya a lesson. The next day instead
of salt bags he loads Khandya with bags of cotton. Khandya is unaware of the change. As planned, he
falls into the water and gets the bags wet. He is surprised to find the load unbearable.
