Once upon a time, there were 2 prosperous neighbouring kingdoms which were ruled by loving King and Queen. The 1st kingdom was gifted with a fertile soil, rich with agriculture and natural minerals while the 2nd kingdom was rich with underwater fortune. Above it all, their real treasure was their only child; a heart-warming prince and a spirited princess who had been friends since they were born. From childhood friends to lovers, their love was blessed by both kingdoms. On their 18th birthday, both parents decided to build them a beautiful palace in between two nations to show their blessing and to commemorate their love.
The Prince and Princess completed each other; the Prince taught the Princess the value of love and the Princess filled the Prince life with laughter. Looking back, the Prince always put the Princess’s feet back on the ground while the Princess fiercely uplifts the Prince’s spirit when he is down. As they grew older, the Prince found that the Princess desires is beyond his acceptance. While the Princess being the Princess, testing the Prince’s patience and love until he couldn’t accommodate it anymore. Little the Princess knew that the Prince had reached his limit, so Almighty sent them a little test just to show how human they were & how fragile their love was.
On one rainy day, the Prince finally told the Princess that he needs to move on. To breathe a fresher air, drinks whiter milk & smell different rose. Stunned with his decision and knowing that it’s a fight that the Princess couldn’t win. The Princess reluctantly let the Prince closed their palace door quietly and tightly. For so long, the Princess stared at the door, waiting & wanting for the door to be opened by the Prince again. But the Prince has been long gone started his new adventure to become a better man. Days after days, months after months, years after years..
With HIS will, an old man who was tired from his long journey entered the half finished palace thinking it’s a rundown place. He saw the Princess running at the door. With his experienced eyes, the wise man knew what’s going on the Princess heart. With a small smile, The Princess took the old man in and provided him with warm foods & bed to rest his old body. The very next day, at the same doorstep, the wise old man told her not to be sad and left her with a book. His last words were to seeking knowledge and His Almighty is always with you.
Not long after that, a young lady knocked the palace door looking for her lost pet. This time around, the Princess walked gracefully towards the door with a wider smile and the pet on her right hand. The Princess invited the young lady for a drink and they had a small talk. At that moment, she saw the book that was given by the old man, silently but loud enough for the Princess to hear; she said “Don’t be sad. Enjoy the nature as much as you enjoyed the book. Perhaps, like the book, you are still in chapter 3 or 4 of your life”. The Princess thanked the young lady as she bids her farewell.
Armed with determination, the Princess decided to embark her own journey too. On her 1st step outside that particular door, the winds gently whispered into her tiny ears; the Princess smiled at the news and made a small prayer, asking His Almighty to protect the Prince, grant him happiness and seeking forgiveness for their sins. With a smile, she closed the door tenderly with a key attached to it. Trusting their unfinished Palace is HIS hands.
