Four boys sat in the principal's（校长的） office, waiting for their punishment. They were in big trouble and they knew it.
When the principal came in, he told the boys, “I've just spoken to all your parents on the phone. They have allowed me to punish you in whatever way I see fit. You have caused a lot of work for our cleaner by writing on the walls today. But he won't do the cleaning. You will. In fact, you boys will clean the walls every day after school for the next week.”
After school that day, the boys went to the cleaner. He looked at them, and without a word, he pointed to some buckets（桶） of water, soap and brushes.
The work took a long time. Whenever they thought they had cleaned enough, the cleaner would point out somewhere they had missed. But he never spoke.
On the last day, they finally finished the job. But when they turned to leave, the cleaner spoke. “In the country where I grew up, we hardly had books or teachers. Even to get a new pencil was a big thing,” he said.
“You used pencils to write on the walls. A pencil is like a person. For a person, there is the point on the outside, but what does the work is inside,” he explained. “Every once in a while, you have to get a painful sharpening （削尖）. That is what you've had this week,” he said. “From now on, instead of leaving your mark on the walls, leave your mark on life. Write your own story using what's inside you.”
The boys understood and they never wrote on any walls again.
