Love transforms everything!
A Dutch diamond collector was seeking for a very rare diamond.
A diamond dealer in New York heard of this inquiry and contacted him…
… letting him know that he believed he possessed the diamond he was looking for.
The diamond collector arrived…
… and the dealer had his salesman present the diamond.
The salesman described all the technical aspects of the diamond.
However within minutes, the diamond collector rose his hand and said: “I am sorry!
This is not the diamond I am looking for”…
… and began to walk away.
Watching from a distance, the diamond dealer hurriedly intercepted him…
… and he asked him if he could present the diamond again.
Since he had travelled a long distance, the collector agreed to listen once again.
The dealer pulled out the same diamond and started describing his admiration for this particular diamond.
Within minutes they were signing papers, and the diamond was purchased.
As the gentleman was walking out, he asked, what just happened?
Why was it so easy for me to say no to your salesman a little while ago, while with you I purchased the diamond?
The dealer replied: “That salesman is the best in the business.
He knows more about diamonds than anyone, including myself, and I pay him a large salary for his knowledge and expertise.
But I would gladly pay him twice as much if I could put into him something I have, which he lacks.
You see, he knows diamonds…
… but I love them!”
Love transforms everything!
Love adds passion to any activity we do.
