Its a Long Road, don’t look for Shortcuts

When one asks himself the question why oneself is still coal,
despite withstanding pressure.
Be assured: it may not be sheer pressure alone that creates a diamond.

Coal, in its natural state, is not pure carbon. One must be guided not just to endure pressure, but to understand purification.

To become diamond
is not merely to survive,
but to become clear.
Gracefully one must hold pressure not as punishment but as process.

Trust that this moment of Kompletion will occur.
Even if invisible.
Even if slow.

You are not just coal.
You are becoming.

Die Sonne scheint über einen Bergrücken, der zur Küste hinunterführt. In der Ferne fährt ein Auto eine Straße entlang.
