YOU DON'T FIND DIAMONDS EASY

Diamonds are never found lying on earth surfaces, waiting to be picked up. They are buried deep in the core of the earth, forged under intense, crushing pressure and scorching, extreme heat. They are not easily revealed, nor are they carelessly found without serious hardwork, and intentional effort. Finding diamonds requires focus, skill, determination, and patience. You have to dig, sweat, and persist, for as long as it would take before you uncover something extraordinary.

Anything valuable in life cannot be gotten on a platter, one have to work to get whatever one wants from life. True love, real success, lasting strength does not comes easy, it must be worked for, or earned. You have to seive through chaff to find something of real value, overcome setbacks to reach your desired destination, and practice to gain perfection in certain crafts.

The most valuable things in the world are not easily seen, nor readily available. Anything that becomes free for all to see, have, use, or own is not valuable or has lost its value. You must protect your valueables, your time, your resources, your health, and yourself. Some things when lost can never be regained or restored to its original state. In your search for value, be sure of what you are looking for, don't pursue the things that look valuable, but actually lack real value.

If you are on your path to your desired future, in the middle of your grind, and you have become unavailable to people who seek you availability for irrelevant engagement, who blame you for your lack of availability, you don't have to be ashamed or apologetic, you are becoming a diamond, and you cannot always be there for everyone. It takes time for diamonds to be formed, so does it also take time and effort for them to be found. Keep going, keep building value, keep developing, soon you will be sought after.

To a better you, Kamikun John.
