Sharpening a pencil is a delicate ritual that can end very emotionally if things go wrong. You put your whole heart and soul into making that pencil sharp enough to pierce through space itself, only for it to break within half a second of being placed on the paper.
The heartbreak that results from such an occurrence is hard to describe – and it’s made all the worse by knowing that the pencil is never going to be strong again.
