PARABLE OF THE PENCIL

 


The pencil maker took the pencil aside just before putting it into the box. “There are five things you need to know before I send you out into the world. He told the pencil.

Always remember them and you will become the best pencil you can be” he added:

One: You will be able to do great things but only if you allow yourself to be held in someone else’s hands.

Two: You will experience painful sharpening from time to time but you will need it to become a better pencil.

Three: You will be able to correct any mistake you might make.

Four: The most important part of you will always be what is inside you.

Five: On every surface you are used, you must leave your mark. No matter the condition, you must continue to write. The pencil understood and promised to do all what the pencil marker had said. Now replace the pencil with yourself. Always remember them and you will become the best person you can be.
