GET BETTER, NOT BITTER

A teacher asked her students to bring some tomatoes in a plastic bag to school. Each tomato will be given a name of the person whom that child hates.

 Like this, the number of tomatoes will be equal to the number of persons they hate.


On a decided day, the children brought their tomatoes well addressed. Some had two, some had three and some had  five, some even had 20 tomatoes in accordance with the number of pple each student hate thus if a student hates 5 pple, he will bring 5 tomatoes.

The teacher told them they have to carry the tomatoes with them everywhere they go for 2 weeks.

As the days passed the children started to complain about the spoiled  and smell of the tomatoes. Students who had many tomatoes complained it was very heavy to carry and the smell was too much.
After 1week, the teacher asked the students "How did you feel this one week?"

The Children complained of smell & heavy weight of the tomatoes especially those who carried more tomatoes.
The teacher said, "This is very similar to what you carry in your heart when you don't like some people. Hatred makes heart unhealthy and you carry that hatred everywhere.
If you can't bear the smell of spoiled tomatoes for a week, imagine the impact on your heart that you carry throughout life."

The Heart is a beautiful garden that needs regular cleaning of unwanted weeds.

Forgive those who have angered you. This makes room for storing good things..

Get better not bitter.

JUST FOR LAFFS- WRONG NUMBER

Hi honey, this is daddy. Is mommy near the phone?” a voice on theother end answer
“No daddy she is upstairs in the bedroom with Uncle Paul.” The little girl quipped.
“After a brief pause daddy says “but honey you haven’t got an uncle Paul!”
“Oh yes I do, and he is upstairs in the room with mommy right now.”
Brief pause “uh okay then, this iswhat I want you to do:
“Put thephone down on the table, runupstairs, knock on the bedroomdoor,
and shout to mommy that daddy’s car has just arrived at thegate.”
"Ok daddy just a minute…”
A while later the little girl comesback to the phone, “done it daddy.”
"What happened honey?”
“Well, mommy got scared and jumped out of the bed naked,
 ran round the room screaming, tripped over, and knocked her
head on the staircase, now she is not moving at all.”
“What about Uncle Paul?” asked Dad.”He jumped out the window
into the swimming pool, but I guess he didn’t know you
emptied the water last week. He hit the bottom and I think he’s dead.”
Really long pause this time…
Daddy says, “swimming pool, but we don’t have a swimming pool?
Is this 486-5731?”
“No, this is 486-5713.”
Sorry, wrong number
