The sound of pencil to paper soothes my inner ear. I love pencils. Maybe it’s because it allows me to erase and instantly I am able to forget what was before and can only see what is now. Thank God life really isn’t like that because how would I learn from my mistakes if I had no memory of it. But on the other hand; if I were allowed to erase, others could forget my past mistakes and allow me what is written today.
