One day in church the priest read us the passage in the Bible where Jesus curses a fig tree. I got it into my head that all figs were cursed, and when one was packed in my best friend's lunch box, I ran screaming towards her, snatched it out of her hand, and threw it into our school pond. When I told my friend that all the figs were cursed, she replied that I must have cursed all the goldfish in the pond, and I felt very guilty!
