While Dad was polishing his new car,

His 4 yr old son picked stone & scratched lines on

the side of the car.

In his anger, Dad took the child's hand & hit it many

times, not

Realizing he was using a wrench.

At the hospital, his child said 'Dad when will my fingers 

grow back?'

Dad was so hurt.

He went back to car and kicked it a lot of times.

Sitting back he looked at the scratches, child wrote

'I LOVE YOU DAD'

Anger and Love has no limits…

A woman came out of her house and saw three old men with long 

white beards sitting in her front yard. She did not recognize 

them. She said "I don't think I know you, but you must be hungry. 

Please come in and have something to eat."

Is the man of the house in home?" they asked .

" No", she replied. "He's out ."

"Then we cannot come in", they replied .

In the evening when her husband came home, she told him what had 

happened 

"Go tell them I am in home and invite them in."

The woman went out and invited the men in ..

"We do not go into a House together!" they replied .

"Why is that?" she asked .

One of the old men explained : "His name is Wealth," he said as 

pointing to one of his friends, and said, pointing to another one 

, "He is Success, and I am Love ." Then he added, "Now go in and 

discuss with your husband which one of us you want in your home .."

The woman went in and told her husband what was said. Her husband 

was overjoyed . "How nice!" he said . "Since that is the case, let 

us invite Wealth. Let him come and fill our home with wealth !"

His wife disagreed . "My dear, why don't we invite Success?"

Their daughterinlaw was listening from the other corner of the 

house. She jumped in with her own suggestion : "Would it not be 

better to invite Love? 

"Let us heed/follow our daughterinlaw' s advice," said the 

husband to his wife !

"Go out and invite Love to be our guest."

The woman went out and asked the three old men , "Which one of 

you is Love? Please come in and be our guest ."

Love got up and started walking toward the house. The other two 

also got up and followed him. Surprised, the lady asked Wealth and 

Succes "I only invited Love ; Why are you coming in?"Our home will then be filled with love ." 

The old men replied together : "If you had invited Wealth or 

Success, the other two of us would've stayed out, but since you 

invited Love, wherever He goes, we go with him. Wherever there is 

Love, there is also Wealth and Success."

There was a boy who was always losing his temper. His father gave him a bag full of nails and said to him, “My son, I want you to hammer a nail into our garden fence every time you need to direct your anger against something and you lose your temper.”



So the son started to follow his father’s advice. On the first day he hammered in 37 nails, but getting the nails into the fence was not easy, so he started trying to control himself when he got angry. As the days went by, he was hammering in less nails, and within weeks he was able to control himself and was able to refrain from getting angry and from hammering nails. He came to his father and told him what he had achieved. His father was happy with his efforts and said to hi “But now, my son, you have to take out a nail for every day that you do not get angry.”


The son started to take out the nails for each day that he did not get angry, until there were no nails left in the fence.


He came to his father and told him what he had achieved. His father took him to the fence and said, “My son, you have done well, but look at these holes in the fence. This fence will never be the same again.” Then he adde “When you say things in a state of anger, they leave marks like these holes on the hearts of others. You can stab a person and withdraw the knife but it doesn’t matter how many times you say ‘I’m sorry,’ because the wound will remain.

Yes, i liked it so much. Especially the end...marks on the heart are forgotten difficulty. It makes no difference whether or not an apology. Thanks

Like :)

I think the ending is not really precise, though.
I believe that there are some removable marks, and there some irremovable marks.  

Thank you for sharing Mekkiziani
