Diamonds are "made" in Secret


Life cycles in different stages, times, seasons and periods. There is a time to be born and a time to pass on, says King Solomon, the writer of Ecclesiastes. Just as conditions vary with time, I believe there is a time to hide in preparation and a time to be shown to the world.

Diamonds are very beautiful coveted and infrequent minerals. They are precious stones humanity value. They are almost priceless, flaunted often by celebrities and other rich people in society, and displayed in classic jewelry shops. According to science, there exist no stone on earth harder than the diamond. No rational individual would refuse to accept diamonds as a gift. They are beautiful, sparkling, valuable and unique.

Often diamonds are displayed in important glass cases and exhibited for sale in big shops. Diamonds are usually unseen by the world until displayed. A diamond beyound all the above mentioned good attributes is a good teacher. It teaches valuable lessons about life.

In his article  Top 10 Countries with the Most Diamonds Found, posted on his passion project TheRichest, Sammy Said stated; "Each piece of diamond has a compelling story behind it. Diamonds are the hardest of all the precious stones unearthed. A diamond becomes highly expensive after undergoing polishing and design"

In life, there would always be the period in one’s lifetime where he or she has to hide in preparation. Diamonds are "made" in secret but displayed publicly after polishing. After going through a tough refining process, they are beautifully displayed, and onlookers admire their beauty until they wish they owed them. This principle applies to humans in general. The world will never appreciate you when you have just a raw talent. You need to polish it. You need to beat your craft, and keep-at-it until you turn out a fine talented and skilled individual.

Diamonds are not made in public, so don’t rush into premature exposure until you are refined. Correct timing is an important key to consider if one would go far in life.

Once you discover your gift and talent. Begin to train yourself.  In most cases, you need to practice your gift freely, through VOLUNTEERISM, and like-opportunities. Keep practicing until you are confident about yourself. Then can you give that mastered talent a commercial value.

Let us learn to respect nature’s cycle, times and seasons. Just as the moon is totally hidden sometimes, quarter-shaped other times, half-shaped and fully-shaped, so do human beings mature and progress in life. We develop with time until we fully fulfill our purposes here on earth.

Always remember that the diamond mines in South Africa, Brazil, Canada, Russian and all the other places are not located in the big flashy cities. Your gift will take you to great places, but first, spend time to polish yourself. Don’t rush to expose yourself to the world. You may be exposing your ignorance. Keep preparing and developing yourself. Practice more behind the scenes. The hour comes when your light will shine, natures whistle will blow for you to be shown and as you walk majestically unto the platforms of great world services, you will make HISTORY, and all will say IT'S YOUR TIME!
