A Green balloon and a Blue balloon were set free to float around sky and earth. They separated, but a year later the winds brought them together again. Instantly the Blue balloon began a long story of oppression and misfortune. “I resent getting bumped by EVERYTHING,” the long complaint ended.
The Green balloon nodded in understanding. “At first I suffered from the same bumps. Then I learned a FANTASTIC secret which may seem strange to you. I learned to not enjoy my resentment. Now, I still run into all sorts of objects but I don’t feel a thing. You see, I learned that my resentment was the bump.

Humans. We’ve been enjoying the pain and suffering of others since the first Neaderthal threw a rock at his friend’s head. If only he’d had a Blackberry in hand to film it!
