We see it often but we seldom realize. 

Amazing achievements that seem to come from out of the blue. 

The reality is they didn't come from no where, they were grafting under the surface for what seemed to them like an eternity. Quietly putting one foot in front of the other, stepping on their journey of a thousand miles with little to no recognition whatsoever.

Until... One day. 

Gravity can no longer hold them and the stars are perfectly aligned.

The years of pressure have formed a diamond that cannot be denied in value.

We knew they were talented. That was never really the question. 

Do they have staying power? 

Can they go the distance?

Congratulations to the true superstars!

Their achievements should be celebrated.
