Look into the glass. What do you see? Do you see ice cubes? Or perhaps something more?

Life is so complex. We often overlook the simple things in front of us. But are they really so simple that they should be ignored?

Think about the ice cube. By itself, it may seem puny and above our notice. But look closer. What you see is a marvelous transformation. Water, the basic building block of life, is frozen for us and kept in a solid state. These ice cubes make it easier for us to store this precious life giving substance. Without it, it would be much harder to preserve our food and our drinks certainly wouldn't be as cold as we are used to. These ice cubes truly are diamonds.

Learn to appreciate the simple things around you. They are diamonds just waiting to be discovered and treasured.
