One of my favourite writers whom i adore a lot is paulo-coehlo.In his wonderful book" Like The Flowing River " i loved his attitude comparision with a pencil.Every creation of almighty always has something to learn...the thing matters is our vision towards the things!!!can anyone expect what pencil conveys is the entire essence of a peaceful and purposeful life!!!these are the wordz of coehlo on pencil...
A boy was watching his grandmother write a letter.
At one point, he asked:
'Are you writing a story about what we've done? Is it a story about me?'
His grandmother stopped writing her letter and said to her grandson:
'I am writing about you, actually, but more important than the words is the pencil I'm using. I hope you will be like this pencil when you grow up.'
curiously the boy looked at the pencil. It didn't seem very special.
'But it's just like any other pencil I've ever seen!'
granny said:
'That depends on how you look at things. It has five qualities which if you manageto hang on to them, will make you a person who is always at peace with the world.
First Quality:
You are capable of great things, but you must never forget that there is a hand guiding your steps. We call that hand God, and He always guides us according to His will.
Second Quality:
Now and then, I have to stop writing and use a sharpener. That makes the pencil suffer a little but afterwards, he's much sharper. So you, too, must learn to bear certain pains and sorrows, because they will make you a better person.
Third Quality:
The pencil always allow us to use an eraser to rub out any mistakes. This means that correcting something we did is not necessarily a bad thing; it hepls to keep us on the road to justice.
Fourth Quality:
What really matters in a pencil is not its wooden exterior, but the graphite inside. So always pay attention to what is happening inside you.
