The Queen of Hearts: Lady Diana Spencer

So I bought this book some 3 or 4 years back, The Diana Chronicles by Tina Brown its a 481 paged story of the Princess of Wales. I completed reading this book just a few days back . . . The reason for such a delay was that everytime I turned the page I started to weep. Each chapter in this book has quotes of people close to Lady Diana. The very first said by Hassan Yassin Dodi Fayed's uncle stating that if he had a woman like Diana with he would have taken her to a jungle not the Ritz.

When I got this book I thought it would be interesting to know about the woman everybody called the Queen of People's Hearts, what I did not think it would be is the story of a lonely, who went on to be a lonely heart broken woman.

When I ask my mom how Lady Diana was when she was alive, she always said that she was the worlds most beautiful woman. I dont know where to start, when ever I think about her so many emotions engulf me that I get lost in my own thoughts.

So I think I will start from he end. The very last chapter of this biographica book is titled as 'Remember Me!' And the first few words on the page are 'Is it true that mummy is really dead?' By the little prince Harry.

How do I remember her?

When I think about her I see lights flashing and the most enchanting smile ever. I remember a woman, who chose to live for other people, I get insired from a lady who had the courage to leave royalty yet still rule on people, buy ruling on their hearts.

Diana was a regular girl with a troubling childhood, and an even more distrbing marriage. I really dont want to blame anyone since she never did, but after reading about her life I cannot stop myself from hating that pathetic excuses of men who broke her heart. I mean. . How can you cheat on a person you know is already broken.

Well whatever, so coming back to a more interesting topic. Lady Diana was an enigmatic women, but behind all the shine and glimmer was a lonely women who had an eating disorder, a disfunctinal loveless marriage, a broken heart and a troubled childhood, yet amidst all this depression she found a way to let go of everything bad and embrace happiness by trying to make others happy.

She was known for her great intense interest in serious illnesses and health-related matters outside the purview of traditional royal involvement, including AIDS and leprosy. She did a lot of charity works, visiting terminally ill people over the world, leading campaigns for animal protection, AIDS awareness and against the use of inhumane weapons.

She found that dying people had more hope than an average man, and in their hopes she found herself again. 

I dont think i can wite any more about her without breaking into tears again. Just that I remember her, I remember Lady Diana as the woman who chose to be the woman that she was, she might have made mistakes but she always eventually founf a way to bounce back.

This one is to Lady Diana Spencer, TheMost Beautiful Woman ever....!!!!
