A long time ago, a pencil wanted to come to the earth. It asked the God for the permission. The God replied the pencil that he could allow it to go to the earth on five conditions. The pencil agreed. Then, the God explained the pencil about the five conditions.
First: you should be handled by others.
Second: you should have a needle.
Third: you should be sharpened frequently.
Fourth: you should have an eraser to omit the mistakes that you have made.
Fifth: you should struggle with the rough surface.

After hearing the conditions, the pencil agreed like an honest and sincere student. The pencil came to the earth.

From this story, we learn a lesson that every person is a special and only he/she can fulfill the purpose to which he/she was born to accomplish.
