Once the light extends its ray to
the dark pit, the creatures inside usually greet it with amazed thrill,
sometimes with a deafening shrill. Either with risen curiosity or exalted
emotions, light speaks of something that penetrates deeply to any object or living
things it shines on upon.
A glint of light from somewhere
reveals the other world that exists beyond our own realm. It always gives the impression
that something wider out there can be journeyed, explored and discovered.
Everything that light casts its rays upon, gets exposed and reveals its whole
being. Light misses no details once it touches something. It uncovers what has
been long hidden, it brightens what used to be obscure and murky, and it
emphasizes what seemed to be unnoticed.
When light shines on something as
precious as diamond the light is being refracted as it enters through the
stone. Such occurrence brings back the lights up to the table part of the
diamond, creating the brilliance that mesmerizes the beholder’s eyes. Without
light, the beauty of the diamond is nothing but forever remains an eternal
mystery. Diamond needs the light so its pure beauty will be known to all. Diamonds
must not keep the lights within but let the lights flow out instead, because
trapping the light will not bring the diamond to its finest exquisiteness. The light
must be received and be given out so the others may experience its glory. The
light as it radiates out of the diamond, reflects itself to the eyes of the
observers.
Light is no different to the wind. It always
carries with it lots of things that it has accumulated from its travel:
history, news, tragedy, hope, memories, and even those things that have been
long forgotten in oblivion. Light does not exist to be trapped, but like the
water that is meant to flow incessantly, light always finds a way even to the
smallest hole opening that it can squeezes through.
However, as with the diamond, the
stone does not always refract the light with expected perfectness. Diamond, a
nature’s pride itself can sometimes let the lights slip out on the wrong side,
losing the chance to reveal how the beautiful stone looks like. Poorly cut
diamond directs the light to escape on the other end of the stone instead on the
top area where the light should go out. Thus,
not all diamonds shine at its greatness, but it requires a well cut features
for the stone’s loveliness to emanates.
To be a well cut diamond is not
that easy – the stone has to go through painstaking procedures and be shaped
accordingly to perfect definiteness. Light alone is not sufficient but the
subject receiving it must be honed, developed and purified.
The light itself is purified that
it brings nothing but positive things. Lucky are those who have experienced the
darkness because they are able to see the light the moment it comes to their
way. But those who have not dwelt into the deepest of pit’s blackness must open
their eyes wider to be able to see the light on its time of coming. Many have
lived in the brighten days but still unable to see the real light, because
their naked eyes refuse to look harder and the others have been blinded by the deceiving
light that comes from things that glitter…
Be a purified and well cut diamond,
turn away from the things that glitter too much, seek the light and receive it
with all your heart.
