We are like Pencils...

In the beginning the Pencil Maker spoke to the pencil saying :-
"There are 5 things you need to know before I send you out into the world. Always remember them & you will become the best pencil you can be."

1. You will be able to do many things, but only if you allow yourself to be held in someone's hand.
2. You will experience a painful sharpening from time to time, but this is required if you want to become a better pencil.
3. you have the ability to correct any mistakes you might make.
4. The most important part of you will always be what's inside.
5. No matter what the condition, you must always leave a clear, legible mark, no matter how difficult the situation.

Now, replacing the pencil with yourself; always remember these rules never forget them. In this way, you will become the person you want to be.

1. You will be able to do many things, but only if you allow yourself in someone's hand, and allow others to access you for the many gifts you possess.
2. You will experience a painful sharpening from time to time, by going through various problems, but you will need it to become a stronger person.
3. You will be able to correct mistakes you might make and grow through them.
4. The most important part of you will always be what's on the inside.
5. On every surface you walk, you must leave a mark. No matter what the situation, you must continue to move ahead.

See, other than trying to be as thin as a pencil, we can learn to be like a pencil itself.
