Dear Humans,

The other day I was cutting pool noodles in half lengthwise to turn into roller coaster tracks for our science activity. And the first noodle I cut with my utility knife was the ugliest cut ever. Jagged and foam everywhere. A pure disaster.

So I changed the razor blade. And it made all the difference. The new blade cut through the foam like butter, and I finished the job in just a few minutes. 

Sometimes it’s as easy as putting in a new blade. But most things we do in life are not as simple and straightforward as cutting foam pool noodles in half. And most of our problems can’t be solved by simply changing our razor blades. 

But it’s still wise to keep our blades sharp. 

Sincerely,

Mr. Curt
