Diamonds...


Have you ever wondered why man's best friend is a dog,
While diamonds are a woman's best friend?

Dogs are loyal to a fault.
Always happy to see you.
Warm. Soft. Companionship.
Goofy, dorky, fun.

Diamonds are beautiful.
Shiny. Sparkly.
Cold, hard, ornamental.
Impersonal.

A dog is a friend.
A diamond is a gift.
A dog is your buddy.
A diamond is your status.

Man's best friend.
Wagging his tail.
Waiting.
Excited.

Woman's best friend.
Sparkling. 
Aloof.
Cold.

Who decided these things?
Who said, this is the way it goes?
Men need companionship!
Women need ornaments!
Men need someone who thinks they are heroes just for coming home!
Women only need something to shine on a hand, or an ear.

Is it an insult to men?
To women?
To dogs?
To diamonds?

Diamonds don't care.
They know they are perfect.
Dogs don't care.
They only want to be loved.
Men don't care. 
They have a dog that loves them.
Women...
women ponder these things...

While looking at their diamonds.

Multifaceted.
Shining.
Hard.
Yet beautiful.
Strong.
Yet dazzling.
Sparkling in the sun.
