How to Shine like a Diamond

June 18, 2013 By Karen Main 8 Comments

A diamond cutter seeks to enhance the brilliance and fire of each stone.

A phenomenal friend will uncover your beauty and potential allowing your brilliance to shine.

Quote

I have an outrageously wonderful collection of people in my life.

Supportive Family and Incredible Friends.

Friends, people I have chosen to share part of my life with, chosen to spend time with, to care for, to celebrate with, to cry with.

Companions who entered my life when our paths crossed, when we shared a common interest.

My friendships are an eclectic mix.

Each and every one of my friends has the ability to break open a piece of my outer crust exposing the diamond within.   Allowing a greater  part of me to shine.

It is their own brilliance that shines a torch into my inner most areas, opening me up to possibilities

Generous and thoughtful friends who demonstrate enormous compassion and encourage me to dig a little deeper

Adventurous and  brave friends, who by her their own actions challenge me to move outside my comfort zone

Creative friends who ignite my imagination

Brave friends inspiring me to take risks.

Vivacious friends who show me how to live wholeheartedly

Bold, honest friends who encourage me to live authentically

Friends full of wisdom exposing me to new ways of thinking

Caring thoughtful friends, treasuring the earth and showing me how to rejoice in natures offerings

Friends who stimulate and support me.

Friends opening me up and vibrantly colouring my life.

Incredible friendships that break me open empowering me to sparkle more brilliantly.

If you want to shine like a diamond celebrate all your marvellous friendships, revel in their uniqueness and individuality, embrace all they have to offer and let their light illuminate your soul.

Rejoice in the power of friendship

Share this with all the fabulous friends in your life.  You know, the ones who bring out your sparkle and paint your soul in vibrant colours.

      We all feel rough at times, I certainly do. It is the people around me who help polish and allow me to shine, people just like you Mum
