The Genuine Signature - Feb 2000
The biggest surprise at the start of the new Millennium is that there were no
surprises. Yes, the world has changed a great deal in the past Millennium,
century and decade. But one thing remains constant: humankind’s striving for
something purer and larger than ourselves.
Our society today is almost obsessively focussed on technology, but people
haven’t lost track of the simple pleasures of nature. As people strive for
fresh air, pure water, and organically-grown food, they will want the natural
beauty of a transparent piece of carbon formed in the Earth’s core.
Imitations, synthetics and various man-made treatments—such as the new
treatment for fancies will undoubtedly increase, and there will be more attempts
to imitate Mother Nature. But, they, and their inventors, will never capture
people’s hearts the way a diamond does. Even in this changing world, some
things are enduring.v |
