In the middle of New York City lies a neighborhood where all secrets are valuable, all assets are liquid, and all deals are sealed with a blessing rather than a contract. Welcome to the diamond district. Ninety percent of all diamonds that enter America pass through these few blocks, but the inner workings of this mysterious world are known only to the people who inhabit it. In Precious Objects, twenty-six-year-old journalist Alicia Oltuski, the daughter and granddaughter of diamond dealers, seamlessly blends family narrative with literary reportage to reveal the fascinating secrets of the diamond industry and its madcap characters: an Elvis-impersonating dealer, a duo of diamond-detective brothers, and her own eccentric father. With insight and drama, Oltuski limns her family’s diamond-paved move from communist Siberia to a displaced persons camp in post–World War II Germany to New York’s diamond district, exploring the connections among Jews and the industry, the gem and its lore, and the exotic citizens of this secluded world. Entertaining and illuminating, Precious Objects offers an insider’s look at the history, business, and society behind one of the world’s most coveted natural resources, providing an unforgettable backstage pass to an extraordinary and timeless show.

Diamonds are precious and highly desirable. Wealthy people pay anything to own them because of their inherent quality that delights and will one day exalt them. But diamonds are the result of heavy pressure, intense heat and long periods of time. These are the three and only factors that give value to anything that can be turned into something precious. Only on that condition it will capture the heart and mind of its admirers. That admiration is the reward for the pain endured. Many do not know that diamonds are made out of common timber that over long periods of time are turned into coal and then into crystal clear, costly and brilliant gems. If put in the fire, they burn like timber and coal, which proves that they are made of carbon. Maybe you are getting the message. If you are made of "common timber," and have the potential of being turned into a precious "diamond," you will know heavy pressures and intense heat over a long period of time. Material diamonds last only a relatively short time, but spiritual "diamonds" last for eternity. The first are admired for a short time, but you will be admired for ever, if you submit to God's refining process. It is a choice with eternal results you make. Hence, choose carefully. Follow the guidelines laid out in this book and let the Divine Craftsman fulfil His dream on you. You had better believe you will have everything to gain - forever.

Starting each morning with God is a must. Studying the Holy Word and talking to God everyday can change your life. I set my alarm atleast 30 minutes early every day to allow time with God. Keeping a prayer journal helps me to focus on my prayer, crying out to God with an honest heart. God longs to hear from us. I started writing devotions to help me cope with difficult times and before I knew it, I set a goal of 365. Each of these devotions were revealed to me from God as we spent time together every morning and throughout the day. I hope these words will bless you as much as they have blessed me.
