I can compare it to a diamond.

A diamond, although it is one clear, honest, beautiful stone, has many facets. From different angles, the same stone looks different. It can be sharp and smooth, depending where you touch it. It reflects light to different directions in different colors.

That's how I am.

Like a diamond.

Put in different situations, I act differently. Grouped with different people, I talk differently. Access my numerous different blogs, and I say different things. But I never contradict myself. Or, at least, I hope not. I am Sarah, still the same, Sarah, but it's just that, when you're looking at me from a different angle, you'll see a different side. It's not that I'm leading a double life. It's not that I'm hiding things from different people. It's not that I don't want a life of integrity and honesty. But it's just that there's more to me than just... well... whatever you know me as.

We can't box people up and say that, "Oh this person is like this." and that's it. People are beautiful creations of God who are simple, and, at the same time, complex. We might think we already know one person inside out, but then, every day, we discover something new about her.

Just as the diamond. We think we know exactly what it looks like. But, looking at it again, we discover a different side we've never seen before.

That's how we are, that's how we all are.

Like diamonds.
