A Pencil maker told the Pencil...

A pencil maker told the pencil five important lessons just before putting it in the box:
- Everything you do will always leave a mark.
- You can always correct the mistakes you make.
- What is important is what is inside of you.
- In life, you will undergo painful sharpenings, which will only make you better.
- To be the best pencil, you must allow yourself to be Held and Guided by the HAND that holds you.
