Any pencil ,if you take it andthrow it on a river it would sink… however, few, very few actually, few pencils can float and travel along with the river.. so they flow, and are part of the river … even fewer when you throw them in the river, they are able not only to flow but to transform the river.. they are the essence of the river flowing, the river in the river..
these are the best ones..

You are one of a kind pencil, of these rare pencils..!

Love and Gratitude
Annie

5 sec reading:
Once an old man said,pencil should always be used alone either for writing or drawing;erasers r for those who commits mistakes.
an young person replied,erasers r for those who desires to correct own mistakes.

ever you notice another quality of a pencil , the close association of inside to outside.

Es sorprendente como de momentos o situaciones tan comunes y cotidianas Pablo Coello extrae un mensaje y una lección de vida. Gracias

What difficult is to live when you are a beautiful wooden exterior. In 1968 I was a young pencil,an university student,no man looked at my graphite inside ,I had taken part in the Student Movement. Luckily I loved from then my present husband, we were free ,beautiful, strong young people,we look at each other inside,we fought against the prejudices of our parentes,professors,of the whole world.I flew over hell’s fire without burning my wings, because I loved my boy with all my heart .To-day I am wife,mother, grand mother,I help my family to grow up,I learn them to look at their own graphyite inside.But it is very difficult to do it,to-day many persons look at the wooden exterior only,they think that life is as a fool bike race, everyone wants to win for the pleasure of winning nothing else,they believe nothing,they speak each other ,it can be convenient,they are together for fearing to appear different,they feign to be friends,they fear of living,of losing the bike race.these persons are sure to live ,but they are just died.(Excuse my English1)

i like the part, every now and then, I have to stop writing and use a sharpener. That makes the pencil suffer a little, but after wards, he’s much sharper.

Es una historia perfecta para explicar todo lo que tenemos que conservar en la vida. Es curioso que un simple lápiz explique tantas cosas personales.
Besos!
