Have you ever broken a bone?

I’ve broken many, but here is one i spoke of a few months back.

I was fixing a heavy wood cabinet at home, I’d been working nights and I was tired, in theory I should have gone straight to bed and rested. Instead I decided to continue, managed to hit my thumb with a hammer, used some ripe old language and then decided to land a right hander square on a solid wood door.

It transpires that after suffering quite a bit of discomfort in my hand I had broken the knuckle on my little finger, also known as a boxers fracture.

What lesson have I learned I hear you ask? Well to be honest when I feel any anger coming on now I just think of my hand and the anger subsides.

Anger is not worth it and is a waste of energy, it causes pain and upset and no one deserves to witness that.

I was a fool, probably still am but I’m now an educated fool.

Stay safe
