Something More Important

A man polishing his new car, his 4 year old son picked up a stone and scratched lines on the sides of the car. In anger, the man took the child's hand, and hit it many times, not realizing he's using a wrench.

At the hospital, the child lost all his fingers due to multiple fractures. When the child saw his father... in painful eyes, he asked " Daddy when will my fingers grow back?"

The man was so hurt and speechless; he went back to his car and kicked it a lot of times. Devastated by his own actions, sitting in front of the car he looked at the scratched; the child had wrote 'LOVE YOU DAD'

The next day, that man committed suicide.
