this why i m lil princess :)

wikipedia:
Though ostensibly a children's book, The Little Prince makes several profound and idealistic observations about life and human nature. For example, Saint-Exupéry tells of a fox meeting the young prince as he exits the Sahara desert. The story's essence is contained in the lines uttered by the fox to the little prince: "On ne voit bien qu'avec le cœur. L'essentiel est invisible pour les yeux." ("It is only with the heart that one can see rightly. What is essential is invisible to the eye.") Other key thematic messages are articulated by the fox, such as: "You become responsible, forever, for what you have tamed" and "It is the time you have spent with your rose that makes your rose so important."


le petite prince is the most beautiful fable i ever read. the first time i fall in love with lil prince was when i read it for the first time during my primary school. it's so alive and interesting that it gives different inspiration in each stage of my life.

sometimes when i was away from my beloved home, i imagined myself as the lil prince, out from my planet to seek the truth of love and life. to see the world with my heart, my eyes and other senses.

absence makes the heart grow fonder, and my heart is definitely too tender resulting from the constant outstation/ overseas trips. i feel sorry for taking so long to realise that my family is the first or maybe the only thing that really matter to me. and i m glad that only hours of flights separate me from my family and home unlike what separated lil prince and his planet.

sometimes, i see the fox inside me. being tamed and hoping for commitment.

sometimes, i see myself as the rose. so vulnerable that i need my lil prince to place the glass dorm over me yet in the view that my thorns can protect me from the world when my lil prince is not around.

most of the time, i see all of my beloved family, partner and friends as my lil prince. i will be laughing looking at the stars because my love ones are laughing on their stars. i have the laughing stars as no one does in the world.

i may sound insane in this post (or in many other posts as well :p) but seriously, read it when you have time, its good. if you have no time, browse the internet. but still, read BOOK is better for you. note: i said BOOK, not eBOOK.

and if you are lucky like me, you will find your answer inside :) remember to see using your heart, what is essential is invisible to the eye.
