A primary school teacher decided to let her class play a game. The teacher told each child in the class to bring along a bag with a few potatoes in. Each potato will be given a name of a person that the child dislikes, so the number of potatoes that a child will put in his bag will depend on the number of people he cannot forgive (原谅). So when the day came, every child brought some potatoes with the name of the people he disliked. Some had 2 or 3 potatoes while some had up to 5 potatoes. The teacher then told the children to carry the potatoes with them wherever they went for one week. With days passing by, the children started to complain because of the bad smell let out by the rotten(腐烂的) potatoes they were carrying.

Those children who had potatoes really began to feel the bag was becoming heavier and heavier. After one week, the children were happy to hear that the teacher had finally ended the game. The teacher asked, “How did you feel while carrying the potatoes with you for one week? The children started complaining of the trouble that they had to carry the heavy and smelly potatoes wherever they went.

Then the teacher told them the true meaning behind the game. The teacher said. “This is exactly the situation when you carry your hatred(仇恨)  for somebody inside your heart. The burden (负担)  of hatred will pollute your heart and you will end up carrying an unnecessary burden with you wherever you go.”
