Grass is common. You dont have to look hard to find it.....
Its stepped on, cut down, and despite its abundance......its barely noticed as people walk by.
Sometimes its uncared for and becomes wild.
Choked out by the weedy world around it.
Grass is fragile.....dependent on the balance of nature to keep it alive
It is easily replaced and regrown, without alot of time and effort.
It will bend to the will of any man, and the process needed to make it beautiful doesnt take great skill.
To possess grass......u simply throw out some seed and sit while it grows
GRASS IS NOT SPECIAL
_____________________________________
Diamonds are rare.
You cannot simply walk down the street & gather enough to fill your hand.
People admire their uniqueness and beauty.
They cannot be ignored.
They are strong & are not easily destroyed.
They do not bend to the will of man....instead they are used to drill into places others cannot go.
To make a diamond shine someone must have great skill.
They must know where it needs to be cut, and where it needs to be polished.
Its a painstaking process that takes a great amout of time & care.
To possess a diamond:
You must dig for it..........commit yourself to finding where its hidden.
You must be persistent in your excavation.......not easily detered by disappointment.
You must see its potential, even in its roughned state, & be willing to work to bring out the perfection it holds inside.
DIAMONDS ARE SPECIAL

My most precious daughter,
Be the diamond. You are unique and special. You are not common like the grass........you have a shine inside like no other.
Be strong, Do not bend to the will of man.
Drill your own path thru life without fear of breaking.
When choosing a mate....choose wisely.
Taking note of how one goes about finding their other half is important.
Do not be impressed by the one who will throw out some seeds and settle for what grows or by those who will watch you wither and die, as the seasons change.
Those who seek to only tend the grass cannot understand the dedication it takes to find and develop something as precious as you.
Seek one who patiently digs to find his mate. Who is willing to break thru all that is common, to find the extraordinary.
This mate is desirable because he is smart enough to knows his reward will be great and his work is not in vain.
He will be the one you can polish yourself against thru life.
He will make you better with his love & devotion.
He will appreciate you because he worked to get you, and has watched your beauty grow as you go thru life with him.
Be the diamond who is cherished and loved.
You are worthy of that status in this life because you are the daughter of the one true King.
The grass has its purpose, but you are meant for more than that.
You are meant to be treasured among the common things of this world.
You are the diamond, not the grass.
