Pencil and Eraser

Pencil: I'm sorry....

Eraser: For what? You didn't do anything wrong.

Pencil: I'm sorry cos you get hurt bcos of me. Whenever
I made a mistake, you're always there to erase it. But
as you make my mistakes vanish, you lose a part of
yourself. You get smaller and smaller each time.

Eraser: That's true. But I don't really mind. You see,
I was made to do this. I was made to help you whenever
you do something wrong. Even though one day, I know
I'll be gone and you'll replace me with a new one,
I'm actually happy with my job. So please, stop worrying.
I hate seeing you sad. :)


Parents are like the eraser whereas their children
are the pencil. They're always there for their
children, cleaning up their mistakes. Sometimes
along the way... they get hurt, and become
smaller (older, and eventually pass on). Though their
children will eventually find someone new (spouse),
but parents are still happy with what they do for
their children, and will always hate seeing their
precious ones worrying, or sad.

This is for all parents out there.....
