The tale of a PENCIL......

Hi everyone,
I wanna share this amazing story i read....
. . . Tale of a PENCIL . . .

One fine day, a child saw her grandma writing something using a pencil... Seeing an elder using a pencil (thought to be meant only for kids !!!), the child asked her, "What are u writing grandma??? ". She replied, "Dear, whatever i am writing is not worth to be mentioned, but with what i am writing that is." Quite perplexed, the child asks, "What's so great about an ordinary pencil?"
"This thing as ordinary as a PENCIL has a lot many qualities, dear. There is so much you can learn about your life from this PENCIL." was grandma's reply.

The grandma then said, "Dear, today I ll tell u 5 qualities of a PENCIL, and do remember these things throughout your life.."

1. PENCIL is capable of writing many great epics, but it is always GUIDED by a hand. Similarly you too are capable of doing many great deeds, but be sure that your mind and heart are always guided and not let free...

2. PENCIL becomes blunt after some use, it constantly needs a SHARPENER to sharpen itself. Similarly one needs a constant motivation in one's life to keep going...

3. PENCIL may have the outer sheath made of any wood, but the INNER CORE of graphite is what matters !!! Similarly its what your attitude, thoughts and outlook towards your life that's important and not the outer circumstances...

4. There is always an ERASER to correct the wrongs done by a PENCIL. Similarly your life provides you too with a chance to correct the mistakes you do and not repeat them...

5. And the last one, PENCIL always leaves a MARK of whatever it writes on the paper. Similarly, son THINK, PLAN and then do whatever you do since your deeds will always leave a mark in your life.........

Hope its bearable :) ....
