Diamonds
Diamonds are everywhere; you just need to know where to look.
Once, long ago, I was walking on a snowy night in Missouri. I was coming back to my college dorm from work in the quiet and still night. My breath was visible in the freezing air as I snuggled deeper into my coat while I trudged through the white depths of fallen snow.
As I rounded the corner to start entering the college park, a street light lit the path ahead. The snow covered walkway glittered like diamonds. Thousands upon tens of thousands points of light welcomed me home.
That was the first time I felt like a princess. In the dark, with all that brilliance surrounding me. I soaked it into my soul and was overwhelmed by the richness of the moment.
There is holy in the common. Simple gifts are the best gifts that God provides. I didn't need a two carat ring - I had opulence in that moment.
Diamonds are everywhere. Just look.
