If people were like an Etch A Sketch you could shake them or they could wiggle and the words and actions that you wrote on the slate of who they were could easily be erased.
Often without even being aware we say or do things that impact a person. It may be postive like a kind word, encouragement or helping someone. It might also be something said or done that has a negative effect. It might be that something you said or did was mistakenly taken out of context or the intention was misinterpreted.
If only people were like an Etch A Sketch...but then again life would hold little opportunity to learn and grow if we were blank slates.
I guess we are lucky that God was in charge of our creation and not the Ohio Art Company.
It is left to us to decide when we need to shake something off and move forward.
Just think, if the bumblebee understood human talk and listened to scientists he might learn that he wasn't aerodynamically able to fly? Don't let what anyone says or does during your lifetime prevent you from achieving all you want, even the seemingly impossible.
