Cold as Stone.

Gold is inside the stone. Diamond is a common stone made precious by men who wish to crystalise beauty. Beauty is common but seen by the insides of the soul of men. Women have a hard time finding beauty because they find beauty every morning looking in the mirror.


By the way, what is precious to you? They say if you love something, let it go. So did the Creator when he gave us His beloved son. Beloved by Him alone.


Gold is inside the stone. Those having calluses hide it in the stories that made them. Stories that every human has experienced. Experiences that introduced pain into our lives. Until we find that pain like salt, is common but different.


Excuse me, I forgot that gold is inside the stone. It becomes the stone of gods only after going through hell. To later pave the streets of heaven and immortal kings.


So, tell me, what is precious to you? Or are you precious to yourself? Do you reflect the light around you? Like the common mirror? The common diamond? Are you a common stone too?


Maybe what’s precious to you isn’t precious at all. Maybe like quartz, you simply tell time until it is your time to clock out. Maybe you haven’t seen enough of hell to refine your own gold yet.


Pardon me, I forgot that diamonds are reflections of man’s perception of beauty. The illuminance of light reflections. The same way the eyes of a woman reflect a man’s love or lust.


Diamonds are a woman’s best friend but remember that women are made of gold refined in the heavens by the hands of God Himself.


Did you forget that gold is inside the stone? No, the gold is the stone. Remember that.
