Diamonds?

I was looking at this diamond thing before, then my friend told me his friend had died and for some reason I managed to link the two together.
Diamonds are so well protected against everything. They are really expensive and worth alot and they are so strong and hard wearing. If somebody has a diamond they treasure it and look after it because it cost them so much, they will polish it and show it off because they are proud of it.
But a persons' life is not so well protected against, they can die at any time and get any one of about 5000000000000000 diseases that can kill. A person might have to go through so much shit in their life and they have no defence, no protection. We are not given anything to help us through what needs to be gotten through or anything to safeguard us against attack. We don't even have the means to defend ourselves. If we make a point; were arguing, if we use force as defence; we are being violent. Worst of all if we are vulnerable; we are subjected to taking crap off every person who thinks it's okay to take the piss and make us feel worse.
A diamond is joined to all the other little carbon atoms for support, they are basically one. But a person cannot live joined on to somebody else, it really doesn't work like that. Yeah, you can be close to people and related but you are never one with somebody else. So basically what ever put us here has intended us to be alone. As humans we have to take the life we have and use it and make it our own and do it alone too.
I would liek to think I apply this to my own life; I try not to rely on other people and I always do things myself. Like school work mainly. I don't get people to do my homework for me or try to help me revise, I don't even let my teachers help me with important deadlines. I do it myself.
I pretty much created a massive hole for myself and dug myself out of it. I was proud of that.
But I think I have mastered being able to function on my own and stand on my own two feet, but have you?
