“There is no gem like truth,
no wealth like knowledge,
no treasure like understanding,
and no jewel like love.

There is no gem like gratitude,
no wealth like humility,
no treasure like patience,
and no jewel like virtue,

There is no gem like peace,
no wealth like contentment,
no treasure like faith,
and no jewel like joy.

There is no gem like time,
no wealth like experience,
no treasure like reality,
and no jewel like life.

There is no gem like prudence,
no wealth like health,
no treasure like prayer,
and no jewel like meditation.

There is no gem like nature,
no wealth like harmony,
no treasure like Heaven,
and no jewel like God.”
― Matshona Dhliwayo
