The Qualities of A Pencil

I read it somewhere that if a person turns to have the 5 qualities of a pencil, then he'll always be at peace with life and the world. Those five qualities are:

1st: We are capable of great things, but must never forget that there is a hand guiding our steps. GOD. He always guides us according to His will.

2nd: A pencil needs to be sharpened. Makes it suffer a little but he'll be much sharper. So, we must learn to bear certain pains and sorrows, because they will make us a better person.

3rd: Like a pencil, we must allow ourself to rub out any mistakes. Meaning, that correcting something we did is not necessarily a bad thing. It helps to keep us on the road to justice, kindness and forgiveness.

4th: What really matters in a pencil is the graphite inside. So always pay attention to what is happening inside us and the quality of others.

5th: A pencil always leaves a mark. In just the same way, we should know that everything we do in life will leave a mark. So try to be conscious of that in your every action.

On the road of rediscovering.......
