Animosity Dispelled.

Tomatoes !!!๐Ÿ…A teacher asked her students to bring some tomatoes in a plastic bag to school. ๐Ÿ…Each tomato was to be given the name of a person whom that child hates. ๐Ÿ…So, the number of tomatoes would be equal to the number of persons they hate. ๐Ÿ…On a pre-determined day, All the children brought their tomatoes well addressed. ๐Ÿ…Some had two, some had three and some had five, some even had 20 tomatoes in accordance with the number of people they hated. ๐Ÿ…The teacher then told them they had to carry the tomatoes with them everywhere they go for two weeks. ๐Ÿ…As the days passed the children started to complain about the decay and smell of the tomatoes. ๐Ÿ…The students who had many tomatoes complained it was very heavy to carry and the smell was too much.๐Ÿ…After a week, the teacher asked the students “How did you feel this week?” ๐Ÿ…The children complained of the awful smell and heavy weight of the tomatoes, especially those who carried several tomatoes. ๐Ÿ…The teacher said, “This is very similar to what you carry in your heart when you don’t like some people. ๐Ÿ…Hatred makes the heart unhealthy and you carry that hatred everywhere. ๐Ÿ…If you can’t bear the smell of spoilt tomatoes for a week, imagine the impact of bitterness on your heart as you carry it daily.” ๐Ÿ…The heart is a beautiful garden that needs regular cleaning of unwanted weeds. ๐Ÿ… Forgive those who have angered you. ๐Ÿ…This makes room for storing good things.๐Ÿ…Get Better, Not Bitter!!!
