Relationship

*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.

 I found this conversation between the pencil and the eraser very inspirational.

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.....

Happy children's day🎉 to all the adults who often try to hide their inner child behind their so called mature personality... just to be fit in the society, but the thing is no matter how much we hide that child, it never dies it keeps urging us to let it enjoy freely away from the constant pressure and responsibility to meet society's expectations and it's idealism.

If we keep suppressing this inner urge we aren't killing that innocent kid, we’re stealing moments of happiness from ourselves. Those who keep their inner child alive never feel lack of joy, they find happiness in every little thing. Their innocence keep them away from world's greedy evils.

Understand your responsibilities but not at the cost of losing your innocence, kindness, and joy.... Try to alance your responsibilities with the pure joy that our inner child brings.

May we walk through life with duty in our hands yet remain beautifully childlike within.🌷✨
