Recently,my students couldn't get on well with each other,so I decided to have them play a game. I told each student to bring a plastic bag with a few tomatoes in it to school. Each student would "name" their tomatoes after the people they did not like. Therefore,the number of tomatoes would be different depending on how many people each student disliked.

The next day,all of the students brought their tomatoes to school. Some of them had just one or two tomatoes,while others had as many as five or six. I then told the students that they would have to carry their tomatoes with them wherever they went for one week.

Several days went by. Some of the students started to complain,as their tomatoes started to rot (腐烂) and smell bad. The students who carried more tomatoes also complained about how heavy their bags were.

One week later,the game was over. I asked,"How did you feel about carrying your tomatoes for a week?"

The students complained once again. I simply smiled and said,"This is what it's like to carry hate in your heart. You have to carry "it" with you wherever you go. If you can't stand carrying rotten tomatoes for one week,can you imagine having hate in your heart for a whole lifetime?"

It can be exhausting to carry hate in your heart for a whole lifetime. Forgive others and move on with your life.
