the Pencil and the ERASER

Pencil – I’m sorry

Eraser – for what? You didn’t do anything wrong

Pencil – I’m sorry because you get hurt because of me. Whenever I make a mistake, youre always there to erase it. but as you make my mistakes vanish, you lose a part of yourself. You get smaller and smaller each time..

Eraser – that’s true.  But I don’t really mind. You see I was made to do this. I was made to help you whenever you do something wrong. Even though one day I know I’ll be gone and you’ll replace me with a new one. I’m actually happy with my job. So please stop worrying. I hate seen you sad..

I found this conversation between the pencil and the eraser very inspirational. Our parents are like the erasers in ur life. Pencils are like children. They are always there for their children, cleaning up their mistakes. Sometimes along the way they get hurt and become smaller or older and eventually pass on. Though their children will eventually find someone new (spouse) but parents are still happy with what they do for their children and will always hate seeing their precious ones worry or sad,,

All my life I’ve been the pencil and it pains me to see the eraser that is my parents getting smaller and smaller each day. For I know that one day all that I’m left with would be eraser shaving and memories of what I used to have..

Also this can apply to the people who are close to u such as brothers, sisters, your best friends, teachers etc.. you may not know how much they take in for u as your just keep doing mistakes and wait for someone to come and help you to erase you and start it again..  so have a watchful eye on all who come and go.. all may not be able to be the erasers.. but appreciate them who be the eraser in your life.. because that’s what they all need.. nothing more..
