"Mental trauma is often far more devastating than physical trauma."

A very young boy was very angry. His father gave him a bag full of nails and said that every time you get angry, one by one the nails will stick to the wooden fence in our garden.

On the first day, the boy had to go to the garden and drive 38 nails. Over the next few weeks the boy was able to control his anger somewhat

The number of new nails in the wood also gradually decreased every day.

He realized that it was much easier to control his anger than to nail it to a wooden fence with a hammer. At last the day came when he did not have to hit a single nail. She told her father this. They told him, "Now open the nails one by one on the days when you can control your anger completely."

Many days passed and the boy told his father one day that he had been able to remove all the nails. His father took him to the garden and showed him the wooden fence and said, 'You have done your job very well, now you can control your anger but look, there are still nail holes in every wood. The wooden fence will never go back to its previous state. When you get angry and say something to someone, it just goes away. So learn to control your anger.
