Food For Thought: Have you ever thought about the beauty of a diamond. All the brilliance, radiance, and beauty of the diamond are released through the facets cut into the stone. However, when the facets get dirty or dusty, the radiance of the diamond is hidden until the residue is removed. We might consider we are the facets of life, and life can withhold energy, health, or love from us no more than the diamond can withhold any of its qualities from the facets unless we cloud ourselves with fear, self-defeating attitudes, or doubt.
Only when these negative qualities are absent can the true nature of our being be exposed to the world. So, let’s try polishing ourselves up by removing the layers of junk and dirt, negative habits, negative thinking from our lives so our light can shine through.
