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 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 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 you can put a knife in a man and draw it out.. But It won't matter how many times you say I'm sorry, the wound will still be there. A verbal wound is as bad as a physical one.
Remember that friends are very rare jewels, indeed. Friends 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.'
Don't go for looks. It can deceive. Don't go for wealth, for even that fades away. Go for someone who makes you smile, because only a smile can make a dark day seem bright.
It's true that we don't know what we've got until we lose it. But it's also true that we don't know what we've been missing until it arrives.
Always put yourself in others' shoes. If you feel that it hurts you, it probably does hurt the person too.
A careless word may kindle strife. A cruel word may wreck a life. A timely word may level stress. A loving word may heal and bless.
Love is when you take away the feeling, the passion, and the romance, and you find that you still care for that person.
The happiest of people don't necessarily have the best of everything. They just make the best of everything that comes their way.
Sometimes, the most extensive article may say very little or nothing to you, but a short and simple phrase says it all.
The wonderful thing about life it that there will always be variables. You have to see them and be aware of them to know how to react to them.
Sometimes I really do not take the time to read the lovely comments I receive. Let's see if you read this. Think about it for a minute ... If I show up on your doorstep crying, would you mind? If I call and ask you to pick me up because something happened, Would you come get me? If I had one day left, would you be with me some of that last day? If I need a shoulder to mourn, "Can I have yours? This is a test to see who your real friends or just as you have someone to talk to when bored. You know what is the relationship between your two eyes? They open and close together, move together, mourn together and they see things together ... that's what friendship is.

Your aspiration is your motivation, your motivation is your belief, your belief is your peace, your peace is your goal, your goal is heaven, Who is your best friend? Send this to all your good friends. Even me, if I am one of them. See how many recover. If you receive more than 3 then "You really are a good person .. what else could you tell me if distance separates us but still are in my heart.
