Question

【题目】 Pencil: I am sorry.

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

Pencil: I’m sorry because you get hurt because of me. Whenever I make a mistake, you’re always there to clean it up. But when you make my mistakes disappear, you also 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 am made to do this. I am made to help you whenever you make a mistake. I know I’ll be gone one day and you’ll take my place with a new eraser. But I’m actually happy with my job. So please, stop worrying. I don’t want to see you feeling sad.

Actually parents are like erasers and their children are like pencils. They’re always there for their children, cleaning up their mistakes. Sometimes they get hurt along the way. They become smaller, older and even pass away after all. Though they cannot be with their children for life, parents are still happy with what they do for their children and always hope that their loved ones can be happy.

I am the pencil and the erasers are my parents. They are getting older and smaller, leaving behind eraser pieces and memories. I know that I will be the eraser one day, doing the same thing that my parents used to do for me.
