As we talked about our dreams, and how we plan to achieve them, in the DIC last Friday, Alexis, a cast member explained to us why she writes in pen, and how she uses that writing as a metaphor for how she lives her life.
She wrote this poem, and created the following video to explain it to the world:
"Why I Write in Pen" by Alexis Buchanan
To me, when you make a mistake in life, you can't necessarily go back and erase it.
Just as in math class, I've made plenty of bad decisions in the past,
And if I ever took them back, I would have never learned, and I never learned, then I'd still be the same way I was yesterday.
Which, I believe, that tomorrow, we aren't the same as the day before.
When you write in pencil, and you make a mistake, you erase it, because of the eraser.
Therefore, you'll never learn from that pencil error and there will be a big dark spot on that clean piece of paper.
Writing in pen is like life.
You cannot erase what has already happened.
But you can scratch it out and make it better next time.
That is why I should write in PEN!!!
