The story about nails
钉子的故事
A little boy had a bad temper. His father gave him some nails and said, “When you lose your temper, hammer a nail into the wall.” The first day, he hammered 37 nails. As time went by, he had fewer and fewer nails. He thought it was easier to hold his temper than to hammer the nails into the wall. Then, he didn’t lose his temper at all. He told his father about it. His father said, “Pull out one nail, every time you can hold your temper.” At last, the little boy pulled out all the nails. The father took his son to the wall, and said, “Look at the holes in the wall. The wall will never be the same as before. What you say in anger can hurt other peo. No matter how many times you say ‘I’m sorry’, the wound is still there.”
一个小男孩脾气很坏。他的父亲就给了他一些钉子并说道:“当你发脾气时,就钉一根钉子在墙上。” 第一天,小男孩钉下了37根钉子。后来钉子变得越来越少。他觉得控制自己的脾气要比钉下那些钉子容易些。终于有一天,他再也不乱发脾气了。他把此事告诉了他父亲。他父亲说:“每当你能控制脾气时,就拔出一根钉子。”后来,男孩拔出了所有的钉子。 父亲带着小男孩来到墙边说:“孩子,看看那些墙上的洞,这面墙永远不能恢复得和从前一样了。你生气时所说的话,会伤害到别人。不管你说多少次‘对不起’,那个伤口将永远存在。”
宽容比狭隘好,尽量宽容他人;口头的伤害同身体的伤害一样伤人。这就是下面的这个故事告诉我们的道理!
