&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;There once was a young boy with a very bad temper. The boy’s father wanted to teach him a lesson, so he gave him a bag of nails and told him that every time he lost his temper he must hammer a nail into their wooden fence.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;On the first day of this lesson, the little boy had driven 37 nails into the fence. He was really mad!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Over the course of the next few weeks, the little boy began to control his temper, so the number of nails that were hammered into the fence dramatically decreased.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;It wasn’t long before the little boy discovered it was easier to hold his temper than to drive those nails into the fence.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Then, the day finally came when the little boy didn’t lose his temper even once, and he became so proud of himself, he couldn’t wait to tell his father.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Pleased, his father suggested that he now pull out one nail for each day that he could hold his temper.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Several weeks went by and the day finally came when the young boy was able to tell his father that all the nails were gone.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Very gently, the father took his son by the hand and led him to the fence.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;“You have done very well, my son,” he smiled, “but look at the holes in the fence. The fence will never be the same.”&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;The little boy listened carefully as his father continued to speak.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;“When you say things in anger, they leave permanent scars just like these. And no matter how many times you say you’re sorry, the wounds will still be there.”&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The moral of this story is literally that you can never fix mistakes&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://giveupanddie.tumblr.com/post/50597371557</link><guid>http://giveupanddie.tumblr.com/post/50597371557</guid><pubDate>Thu, 16 May 2013 16:26:57 -0400</pubDate></item><item><title>octubretrece:

&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Well right, naturally you should hate spirituality. That word almost always refers to someone using the spiritual as spackle to fill some defect in him or herself. A beached fiftysomething with a face like a worn coin, suddenly terrified of death and enrolled in a community college goddess…&lt;/p&gt;
