Pencil

Hhaha the topic. It is making you wonder why on earth would I put this as the topic and what I'm gonna write about it. Well, to clear a few things I am actually writing about a PENCIL, literally.

Pencil, I shall say, MY pencil. Its of red and black vertical stripes. Love the color combination. Red symbolizes passion and black is the door to mystery. I always wonder what it has to do with me, well frankly it means nothing to me. I'm a normal teenager who gives not a damn to all the philosophical meaning in life about each and every non-living thing. But as an English student I'm trained to be philosophical and put my best effort to bring out non-living things to life or at least relate them to our normal life.

It is brand new, never used it once. Its passion to jot down anything the master says is symbolized by the red color. We say pen is mightier than a sword and in this case, its Pencil. Yes, it is.

Sharpening the pencil is the process of shaping its beauty and making it reach to its highest peak possible. We all do undergo in our life the process for our future. High school being one, then the struggles and obstacles, lessons in life are all shaping us and this is our way of sharpening our mind and heart. Ain't easy I agree but we all go through it. Some learn from it and some just ignore it. And once it all is done, we stand still and enjoy our success and growth we have shown. Soon we all gonna be a part of that.

There's a point in life of a pencil when it breaks down but we sharpen it again and bring it back to what it was before. We do break down right, some point in life  let it be regarding to academics, career, family, friendships, relationships and so many things. We get hurt, betrayed, fall down, get scrapped knees, broken heart. But the point of it all is to gather up the pieces and move on, right? We get hurt, dejected for there's no meaning to love if there is no pain, nothing is joyful and happy if you have not experienced pain and there is no beauty in oh-this-is-one-of-the-best-days of life if you have never faced a bad, gloomy day. In order to understand the ongoing life cycle, you need to face it. I'm not going to distract you from the facts of life with the happy stories of all human beings. Yes, I do believe in happy endings everyone deserves an happy ending but also believe that the journey and the path is always human-like. No matter what, gather your bits and pieces of yourself and get going cause the world is not gonna wait for you. Its better to be ahead than lag behind. Believe in yourself amd the sky is your limit just like the pencil where the sharpest point is its limit.
