The Pencil Maker took the pencil aside,
just before putting it into the box. There
are five things you need to know, he told
the pencil, before I send you out into the
world. Always remember them and never
forget, and you will become the best pencil
you can be.
[1] You will be able to do many great things,
but only if you allow yourself to be held in
Someone's hand.
[2] You will experience a painful sharpening
from time to time, but you'll need it to become a better
pencil.
[3] You will be able to correct mistakes you will make.
[4] The most important part of you will always be what's inside.
[5] On every surface you are used on, you must leave your mark.
No matter what the condition, you must continue to write.
The pencil understood and promised to remember, and went into the box with
purpose in its heart.
Now replacing the place of the pencil with you; always remember them and
never forget, and you will become the best person you can be.
[1] You will be able to do many great things, but only if you allow
yourself to be held in God's hand. And allow other human beings to access
you for the many gifts you possess.
[2] You will experience a painful sharpening from time to time, by going
through various problems, but you'll need it to become a stronger person.
[3] You will be able to correct mistakes you might make or grow through
them.
[4] The most important part of you will always be what's on the inside.
[5] On every surface you walk, you must leave your mark. No matter what
the situation, you must continue to serve God in everything.
