Everyone admires the beauty of diamonds, often overlooking the intense pressure and heat they endured to achieve the highest level of brilliance.
I see my life as a metaphor for a diamond—subjected to intense conditions and pressure while my peers waited, and even wished, for my demise. Little did they know that this pressure is familiar to me-just like grabbing coffee with an old highschool boyfriend.
The harsher the conditions I was put thru, the more resolute I became in refusing to let them take control from me. You could blame my Aries stubbornness for that one.
Now that I'm shining brightly, I receive praise, but what many don’t realize is that this praise is unfamiliar to me; it’s the pressure that I know al too well. And to be honest with you, the pressure makes me feel alive. That's why you'll never see me buckle.
