I once learn something from a course.That course told us to write down 5 good things about something but within a few minutes,we have to point out all the bad things about that thing again.Whoever participate in this exercise will immeditely
learn something about themselves.Well,maybe you have this learning experience or something similar as well.Whatever it is.Share with us and enrich all the mylotter in this new year holiday.What do you think of a pencil and now it is your turn!

Ha ha,there you are again.If you know how to appreciate on thing s and think a little bit deeply,you will then find out even a pencil is not that simple and don't underestimate its importance and value of existence.See what I got for you.The 5 strength of a pencil:1.It can help us to write.2.It is made long so it is easy our hand to use in writing.3.Most of the time,the color with the pencil can build up our mood to use it more.4.There are some pencil with a rubber on its top that we can use it to erase our writing mistakes easily.5.A pencil is not experience that most of the people can afford to get one for school or work,it is convience.Now,you can see even a pencil can be so different now.God made everything and everyone so diiferent,and we have to really appreciate and thank God for all His creation.And of course you are one of this creation.^_^Have you ever thank God for what you have ? If not,let 2010 be your year in starting to thank God on all the good thinks you have.God bless you.

Hmmmmmmmmm, I don't know what I'm going to learn from this, hmmmmm.
Good points are.....they make pretty little colored pencils, it has an eraser, you can learn to write with it, you can sharpen it and use it again, doesn't break easily.
Bad points are.....eventually it whittles away to nothing, the lead tip breaks all the time, the eraser disappears, you can hurt somone with it because its hard and sharp, you can't use it for legal documents
I guess that's it, now tell me what did I learn? Tell me, tell me.

pencil is only a tool but the attitude and see things in different angle are the things that we can learn from anyalse something's strenghth and weaknesses.Just like us,we all hav our strength and weaknesses and so does others.It is an exercise that can help you to appreciate things and have a clear mind on different things and person in life.I learn this from a counselling course.On the ither hand ,all things were created with purpose.Just like a pencil has its value of existence.We all have to thank God for created us so special and yet so unique in this world and we have to learn how to live out the purpose He created us for.But first of all we have to thank God for our life and still exists.and of course the most important if all is to accept Jesus as your own personal saviour,then you will start to know what is God's purpose in your life.Happy new year and God bless you.

There goes the saying that every coin has two sides. So does a pencil.
Now let's come to the some good things about a pencil can be listed as follows,
1. Like all the other kinds of pens, pencils are sharp as they can be used to write any articles that are convincing to people.
2. Like a burning candle giving lights to others and burning itself to the full, a pencil makes great contributions to the others by sacrificing itself from a long pencil to a short one till it is worn out completely.
Some weakness of a pencil can be as follows,
1. It is easy to be broken into two parts as it is fragile.
2. The lead within the wooden pencil could be harmful.
All in all, while something is strong in one field, it also has its weak sides. Nothing can be perfect to 100 percent. But if we can make good use of the good sides and avoid the bad sides, we can still make it serve us to our satisfaction.

hi wildlittlefan mostly weaknesses as they get dull much too
quickly and the lead breaks much too easily and they seldom
'come with a fine point, but on the other hand they make
writing that can be erased, and they can be sharpened over
over until they are little stubs.ugh.hate pencils.
give me a good fine point ballpoint pen and I am a very
happy camper, I do seldom make errors so pens are just great
for me and as I love to write I keep pens and paper on hand'
all the time.
