This is my spanish page. I figured that if i have to do it i might as well write something that i really like. so here is a story. I hope you like it. and remember to do the quizes. Enjoy!!! >>> There once was a little boy who had a bad temper. >> His Father gave >> him bag >>> of nails and told him that every time he lost his >> temper, he must >> hammer a >>> nail into the back of 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 >> pull >>> 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 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 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."
