I was browsing through some friend's blog of mine and saw this short story which I thought of sharing it with you guys. Hope that after you guys read it, it will change your mindset.If it does not, then thanks for reading it. :)*****
There was one primary teacher in a remote village. She came to classroom and asked the little children, "Do you have anyone that you hate the most?"The little children thought for a while, some remained silent and some nodded their heads.The teacher then gave a bag to each of the children and said: "Let us play a game. If you could think of any person who hurt you in the past one week, after class please collect a stone from the riverside, paste a paper with the name of that person on the stone and place the stone in the bag. The bigger the hurt, the bigger should be your stone. If it is a small hurt, then it should be a small stone. I want you all to carry the bag with the stones to the class everyday."The students found the game was very interesting. They rushed to riverside to search for the stones after class. The next morning, the children carried their bags with the stones to school and were happily chatting away. This went on the first day, second day and on the third day it was over… Some were carrying bigger and bigger bags that became a burden. At last, some children started to complain."Teacher, it's very tiring." and the teacher was laughing without saying a word. There was one student shouted loudly, "Yeah, it is very tiring to carry the stones to class everyday." The teacher finally smiled at the child and said: "You should let go all the stones that carry other people's mistakes". The children were surprised. The teacher continued and said, "Learn to forgive people's mistake. Do not keep them as treasures in your heart and carry them on the shoulder, over time, none of us will be able to stand the weight of the burden anymore…"This week, the children had learnt a very precious lesson in life. The more and bigger stones are in the bag, the more hatred the heart will harbour and the hatred will become deeper and deeper. The burden will become heavier and heavier…… Like the following proverb: "Forgiving people's mistakes is a glory to us." Learn to "let go", it will free us..

So how was it ? Comments are welcome. I would not disagree that sometimes it is hard to forgive someone.After reading the story, I somehow find that it does make sense. Surely you would not want to carry the burden for your whole life right ? Why not throw it away, anywhere will do, in the dustbin, in the sea, out your window etc. Well, they say that 'It is easier to forgive an enemy than to forgive a friend.' Hmmm...I am not really sure why but if any of you readers understand, please explain it to me.Anyway, try to forgive them as you do not know what might happen to the other party and it might be too late. eg.death . So, to all that I have offended intention/unintentional, please forgive me. Also to those who have and yet to offend me, I forgive you.
It is very easy to forgive others their mistakes; it takes more grit and gumption to forgive them for having witnessed your own. - Jessamyn West
If you guys care to search the drawer located inside my room, you will definitely find that pistol.I keep it just for safety purposes.This pistol is called AMT Hardballer or Silverballer, the preferred name for Agent 47. Agent 47 is the main protagonist of the Hitman. You guys should really check out the game and also the movie. One bad point about Agent 47 is that he kills people without having feeling guilty. Whoever interfere with his mission, that's it, goodbye to you. He either kills you straight or injure your vital parts and let you die slowly....
On the other hand, he always complete the task given to him. hhmmm...maybe I should consider contract killing as my future occupation. Wearing an Italian black suit, white striped dress shirt and red tie. With dual Silverballers always by my side. In the movie, what I notice is that, Agent 47 never kills girls. I am not sure what the reason is. There is one girl who interfered him when he wants to kill but he spares her life. Damn! So, if I were to be like him, do I have to do the same and not kill the girls? Cheryl, Peiying and Yan Yi, you girls are lucky !!
One of his motto appears to have become ' Trust No One '. Still thinking whether that is true.
See that? Behind his head is printed bar codes. The last two digit is 47, that is why his name is Agent 47. I need a new hair cut. Maybe I should shave my head, like his and maybe even put tattoo of bar codes behind too. errmm...640509-040177..call me Agent 77. HaHa..That definitely gonna attract alot of people attention, especially here in Singapore. So to all people who think of messing around with me, better think twice. You will never know whether you will see tomorrow or not because you might just be shot by a sniper who is about 2km away from where you are.
See those two people ? That is what happen when you got lots of time to spare. Testing web cam and it turns out okay. Early this morning, I was listening to this new radio station. I must say the DJ ain't that bad. Just give him a few more time at that station and he is gonna be more experience and better.
