篱笆里的钉子
从前，有一个小男孩脾气很坏。他的父亲给了他一包钉子，告诉他每次发脾气的时候，必须把一根钉子钉进篱笆里。第一天，这个男孩把37根钉子钉进了篱笆。
在以后的几个星期里，他渐渐学会了如何控制自己的怒气，这样每天锤进篱笆的钉子的数目也越来越少。他发现，控制自己的脾气比把那些钉子钉进篱笆更容易。
终于有一天，这个孩子再也不发脾气了。他把这件事告诉了他的父亲。父亲对这个男孩建议道，如果他能控制自己的脾气一天可以拔掉一颗钉子。日子一天天过去了，最后这个男孩告诉他的父亲，所有的钉子都被拔下来了。父亲牵着儿子的手把他领到篱笆旁，说道:“你做得很好，我的孩子，但是你看这篱笆上的洞。这些篱笆永远不会跟从前一样了。当你带着怒气讲话的时候，你给别人造成的创伤如这些洞一样。这就像你拿着刀子刺伤了别人又把刀子拔出来一样。无论你说多少次‘对不起’都无济于事，伤疤依然如故。”
