I was going to discuss how beauty is more than just skin deep, but instead, I will talk about rocks. Take an amethyst rock for example. When it is whole, you cannot know whether this rock is anything more than simply just a grayish-brown rock. One you can find anywhere, no more than a rough in a rough. Much less than a diamond, much less than gold. You can see an uncut amethyst rock and think nothing of it. Never to wonder anything more about it. Merely a rock. But what if you decided to give it a chance, to assume that this rock is greater than the sum of its parts. Of course, there is a chance that this rock could just be a rock, no more, no less, but what if. What if you did decide to crack it open, to discover what could reside inside of it, to have the curiosity and courage to give what you could possibly find a standing chance. So you do. You crack it open, and when it is exposed, it is iridescent, it is shiny. The crystal like interior finally exposed to the naked-eye. Now, this rough rock, that once was merely just a rock has evolved. A complete 180 taking shape. Truly, the rock is now greater than the sum of its parts. So, what if people were given that chance?
Commonly, humans.
