DIAMOND IN THE ROUGH


All my life I have allowed others to define who I was and what my true worth was to the world. I had someone always telling me what to do where to do it and when. I was a mindless zombie letting others who did not care about getting to know me decide my fate in life. Now late in life I have found my true passion which is writing. And once again all those who feel they know what is best for me try to define my worth. In all likely hood I will never get published for I'm not famous or wealthy. I don't know an insider in the publishing world or have committed some spectacular feat of engineering. I'm not a politician or an actor who can exploit my fame and I am certainly not a survivor of a terrible disaster working the talk show circuit. I'm just a normal human being that inhabits the earth along with all the important people. Now I want you to understand something about me and more importantly about you. In the endless vastness of the universe in all the countless galaxies and solar systems there is something even rarer then diamonds. This rare gift lives in only one single place in all the universe making it the most precious thing that could ever be found. Only one exists and no other will exists after it is gone and lost to the aging of time. This rare and precious one of a kind unique item is YOU! Do not let others define your worth because you are priceless and your worth can not be measured! Follow your heart and grab tightly to your dreams and never never let someone decide your fate for you! I have a dream of becoming a successful writer someday and I will carry this dream to my grave if that be my fate. Never give up never give in and never compromise on what you believe in!!!!!!!
