Qualities of a Pencil

The five qualities of a Pencil which if we manage to hang on to, will make us persons who are always at peace with the world & with themselves.

1. We are capable of great things, but we must never forget that there is a hand guiding our steps. We call that hand God, and He always guides us according to His will.
2. Now and then, we have to stop writing & use a sharpener. That makes the pencil suffer a little, but afterwards, he's much sharper. So we, too, must learn to bear certain pains and sorrows, because they will make us a better person.
3. The pencil always allows us to use an eraser to rub out any mistakes. This means that correcting something we did is not necessarily a bad thing, it helps to keep us on the road to justice.
4. What really matters in a pencil is not its wooden exterior, but the graphite inside. So we must always pay attention to what is happening inside us.
5. It always leaves a mark. In just the same way, we should know that everything we do in life will leave a mark, so lets try to be conscious of that in our every action.
