"Potatoes" Once,a Junior Teacher asked her students to bring some potatoes in a plastic bag to school.Each potato will be given a name of the person whom that child hates.Like this,the number of potatoes will be equal to the number of persons that they hate. On a decided day,the children brought their potatoes WELL ADDRESSED.Some had two,three and some even had five potatoes. The teacher then said that they have to carry these potatoes with them everywhere they go for a week.As the days passed the children started to complain about the spoiled smell that started coming from the potatoes,coz some had many and it was also to heavy to carry.The kids then decided to get rid of this assignment. The teacher asked,"How did you feel in this one week?"The children then discussed their problems about the smell and weight. The teacher then said,"This situation is very similar to what you carry in your heart when you don`t like some people.This hatred makes your heart unhealthy and you carry that hatred in your heart everywhere you go.If you can`t bear the smell of spoilt potatoes and the weight thereof for a week,imagine the impact on your heart of this hatred that you carry throughout your life." Our heart is a beautiful garden that needs a regular cleaning of unwanted weeds.Forgive those who have not behaved with you as expected and forget the bad things. "THIS ALSO MAKES ROOM AVAILABLE FOR STORING GOOD THINGS"
