Queenly Quote: Toughest Is Eventually Easiest

"In this age, which believes that there is a shortcut to everything, the greatest lesson to be learned is that the most difficult way is, in the long run, the easiest."

--Henry Miller

This Blog"s Philosophy

You are the hero of your own story.

~ Believe in the power of your tale. Step on the glorious path to your true self. Choose your allies with care, then be loyal. Stand before your enemies with courage and stamina. Bow humbly before your King. Listen to the wise counsel of the land's sages, and heed their advice. Whisper your wishes to the wind, for Heaven hears the cry of your heart. Slay the great dread dragons mercilessly, if they refuse to join the cause or leave the kingdom peacefully. Some things can't be accepted in moderation.
~Kiss your prince or princess. Celebrate each day closer to that happy ending with a great big hug. Then share a healthful low-calorie supper with sparkling water to sip, and finish up with ripe berries for dessert. Well, even heroes can't eat everything they want, you know?
~ The ending of this story of your life is up to you.
