A kid asked her grandma who was writing a letter,
"Are you writing about our experiences? or is it about me?"
Her Grandma replied, "Yes, actually i'm writing about you. But there's something more important, which is the pencil i'm using. I hope you'll be like this pencil when you're grown up."
The kid said "But, grandma, it's just a common pencil. There's no special thing about it."
Grandma replied, "It depends on how you see this pencil."
"This pencil has 5 qualities that can make you live your life calmly, if you keep holding those principals in your life."
"First quality, a pencil reminds you that you can create great things in your life. Like a pencil which is used for writing, don't forget that there's a hand which always guides your steps in life.
We call it God's hand, He will always guide us no matter what."
"Second quality, in a process of writing, i might have to stop writing and sharpen my pencil. This is like how you have to face obstacles and problems. They are your sharpeners. Although it hurts, but after you go through it you'll get lessons and experiences, which make you a better person."
"Third quality, a pencil always gives us chances to use an eraser, to fix wrong words that we write.
In life, fixing our mistakes is not a bad thing. It will lead us to stay in the right path."
"Fourth quality, the most important part of a pencil isn't the outer side, but the graphite inside it.
That's why, you should be careful and be aware of things inside of yourself."
"The fifth quality, a pencil always leaves a mark when it's used for writing.
Just like yourself, you have to realize that everything you do in life will leave an impression. That's why you have to be careful on how you behave and do everything."
Cool. I love the Philosophy.
