"No pressure, no diamonds" - 

Thomas Carlyle

Do you know how diamonds are made? Most natural diamonds are formed at high temperature and pressure at depths of 140 to 190 kilometres in the Earth's mantle. Diamonds are formed from a carbon under extreme pressure, without the pressure, it would just be carbon in a lesser form such as graphite. In human terms, putting people under pressure sometimes makes them produce their best work and brings out their best qualities. We may suffer from our trials and go through tough times, but it's the process of being a better individual, with better skills, knowledge, and experience. Without pressure and problems, I will not be the person that I am now. Our trials make better people of us. It's not there for nothing. We just need to see the positive side of it and try to not just survive, but to also live and embrace the moment.
