The parable: A merchant man seeking precious jewels found at last the perfect pearl. He had the finest craftsman carve a superb jewel box and line it with blue velvet. He put his pearl of great price on display so others could share his treasure. He watched as people came to see it. Soon he turned away in sorrow. It was the box they admired, not the pearl.
I'm trying to see the pearl in all things.

I recently heard this story too, really inspiring, sometimes we are so focused on what is on the outside, and what surrounds what is important.
