When
I started using Biro in my primary school, and I made a mistake, I would try
hard to erase it. Sometimes I use chalk, but it later reappears. So I began to
use saliva, it worked only to leave holes in my book. My teachers then used to
beat me for being outrageously dirty. But all I tried to do was cover my
errors.
One day, a kind hearted teacher called me aside "And
say, anytime you make a mistake, just cross
it and move on. Trying to erase it would only damage your book".
"But,
I don't want people to see my mistake and laugh at me", I protested.
"Trying
to erase it will make more people know
about your mess, and the stigma is for life".
Have
you made a mistake that you are trying so hard to erase?, CROSS
IT AND
MOVE
ON.
