the Pencil theory

some guy told my friend on a train ride that life is like a pencil.

(12:51 AM) ASHLEIGE TARA -:
we can do a lot of things when someone would hold our hands and guide us
(12:51 AM) ASHLEIGE TARA -:
life is a collection of memories, remembered and forgotten, hence the eraser at the end
(12:51 AM) ASHLEIGE TARA -:
and once in a while, when we get down or blunt or a little too conceited, we get a rude awakening and painful sharpening
(12:52 AM) ASHLEIGE TARA -:
and the more we learn and grow, the shorter our lives are left with, the pencil get shorter and shorter
(12:52 AM) ASHLEIGE TARA -:
but if we were to do just one good thing, something that made an impact on a person's life, we will still be remembered even if the pencil's gone
