Throw Away Hatred

Throw Away Hatred ---

 

A kindergarten teacher has decided to let her class play game. The

teacher told each child in the class to bring along a plastic bag

containing a few potatoes. Each potato will be given a name of a

person that the child hates, so the number of potatoes that a child

will put in his/her plastic bag will depend on the number of people

he/she hates. So when the day came, every child brought some potatoes

with the name of the people he/she hated. Some had 2 potatoes; some 3

while some up to 5 potatoes. The teacher then told the children to

carry with them the potatoes in the plastic bag wherever they go

(even to the toilet) for 1 week. Days after days passed by, and the

children started to complain due to the unpleasant smell let out by

the rotten potatoes. Besides, those having 5 potatoes also had to

carry heavier bags. After 1 week, the children were relieved because

the game had finally ended.

 

The teacher asked: "How did you feel while carrying the potatoes with

you for 1 week?" The children let out their frustrations and started

complaining of the trouble that they had to go through having to

carry the heavy and smelly potatoes wherever they go. Then the

teacher told them the hidden meaning behind the game. The teacher

said: "This is exactly the situation when you carry your hatred for

somebody inside your heart. The stench of hatred will contaminate

your heart and you will carry it with you wherever you go. If you

cannot tolerate the smell of rotten potatoes for just 1 week, can you

imagine what is it like to have the stench of hatred in your heart

for your lifetime?"

 

Moral of the story:

 

Throw away any hatred for anyone from your heart so that you will not

carry sins for a lifetime. Forgiving others is the best attitude to

adopt.
