A kindergarten teacher has decided to let her class play a game. The teachertold each child in the class to bring along a plastic bag containing a fewpotatoes. Each potato will be given a name of a person that the child hates, sothe number of potatoes that a child will put in his/her plastic bag will dependon the number of people he/she hates. So when theday came, every child brought some potatoes with the name of the people he/shehated. Some had 2 potatoes; some 3 while some up to 5 potatoes. The teacherthen told the children to carry with them the potatoes in the plastic bagwherever they go (even to the toilet) for 1 week.Days afterdays passed by, and the children started to complain due to the unpleasantsmell let out by the rotten potatoes. Besides, those having 5 potatoes also hadto carry heavier bags. After 1 week, the children were relieved because thegame had finally ended.
The teacherasked: "How did you feel while carrying the potatoes with you for 1week?"
The children let out their frustrations and started complaining of the troublethat they had to go through having to carry the heavy and smelly potatoeswherever they go. Then the teacher told them the hidden meaning behind thegame.
The teacher said: "This is exactly thesituation when you carry your hatred for somebody inside your heart. The stenchof hatred will contaminate your heart and you will carry it with you whereveryou 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 foryour lifetime?"
