Focus Friday: Have you heard the saying "Diamond in the rough"? Let's explore this metaphor. Diamonds, in their natural state, are rough, not only unpolished, but also not even appearing to most people to be diamonds at all. Their beauty is unrevealed to the viewer, awaiting cutting and polishing by the person who is able to see what lies beneath. So, a diamond in the rough is a person with many great qualities, but one who is not polished enough for others to always appreciate. You are a diamond in the rough. You are not always appreciated because everyone can't see what you have. I encourage you to embrace the cutting and polishing that is happening in you life to expose your diamond character and values to this world. Today focus on polishing your potential by working harder on becoming a better you that can shine for everyone to see. Diamond in the rough!
