Pernah digombalin? Pernah digombalin dengan dibilang, "You are one in a million" atau "You're precious/rare as a diamond"?
Pernah digombalin begitu terus ngerasa seneng atau bangga?
This post is directed to girls and girls only.
If someone has ever said to you something like I have illustrated above. Please, please, don't be so happy. I'm not saying you cannot be happy, ever. But don't be too happy, don'e be overjoyed.
Why? First, let's talk about "You are one in a million". There are 6,973,738,433 people in this world. Say what, almost 7 billion people in this one small world. If you are one in a million, there are approximately another 7 thousand people who are just like you in almost every single bit. Do you want that? No... So be one person in almost the 7 billion people in this world because you are who you are, and no one in this whole wide world can be you better than you are.
Second, if someone has ever said to you, "You are as rare as a diamond", that person obviously never go out and pass a jewelry store. I'm sorry but diamonds are not rare. You can go in to any jewelry store in this world and find at least one piece of jewelry with diamond on it. So no, women are not rare as a diamond.
If they say "precious"? Well, they're close but no. Yes, diamonds are expensive indeed. But which kind of diamonds? Different types of diamond depending on where they come from has different price for them too.
Maybe if they say, "You are precious/rare as uranium 235", we should feel pretty good or something. Since uranium 235 is indeed rare. It's not easy to find that isotope. Precious? Of course. It is rare therefore it is precious (read: expensive too). It is powerful (if you don't know, uranium 235 is for nuclear reaction and stuffs) and it has a very long half life (the fission reaction can last for a long time in great power).
I would rather be uranium 235 than a diamond. How about you?
