When was the last time anyone used a SLATE. Remember the black stone, wooden edge, 12" by 12" flat surface and the white chalk and the duster. Yes now you remember, oh the endless scribbling and erasing and those coloured chalks - blue, pink, green. Mine was be used to add 2 n 2 or sometimes to draw random patterns to be converted into mendhi or rangoli in the later years. The slate would vary from the back of the door to the floor to the back of nice wooden bed frame. But how I liked to clean it all - to draw something new or to write that new equation from the algebra class or fix my mistake in theorem proofs. So it is with life. Slate, chalk, duster - life, actions, support system, difference being there is never truly a blank slate in life other then when we are first born. Well some will dispute that too with rebirth parallel universes etc etc. but for now I will start at the blank slate.
