Why Prince Harry's ex-girlfriend should've taken my advice

According to a recent Daily Mail article, Prince Harry's ended his romance with singer Mollie King because of her indiscretion. Who can blame him? Mollie's loose lips counteracted all the measures she and Harry took to keep their relationship under wraps and out of the public glare.

Her indiscretions also had disturbing implications. To whom would she (and her bandmates/friends) leak info to next? Would she continue to milk the attendant publicity for all it was worth? Harry was presumably also motivated by seeing first-hand how Press leaks fueled his parents' PR war in the late 1980s and the 1990s ("the War of the Waleses"). If nothing else, it shows that Harry is thinking with both his head and heart, and takes his romantic life quite seriously.

In an earlier blog post, I outlined the traits Prince Harry's future wife would need in order to be successful in her public role (this list is also applicable to his girlfriends and romantic partners). At the top of that list was discretion. If Mollie had read that blog post (or received sensible advice), she wouldn't find herself on the outside looking in, like other imprudent royal girlfriends e.g. Lady Sarah Spencer.

So, future girlfriends of Prince Harry, please take note: if you want a fighting chance at capturing Harry's heart, please keep your lips shut. Otherwise, get to steppin', and don't let the door hit you on the way out.

H.R.H. Diana, Princess of Wales: A voice from eternity

Photo credit: Mario Testino

Last week I stumbled across Sara Mitchell's book Voices From Eternity, in which five deceased celebrities talk candidly about life after death. One of those channeled was H.R.H. Diana, Princess of Wales, who spoke about her life and death, her love for her children, offered some advice to humanity, and revealed what she's been up to on the Other Side. Providing an unorthodox and intriguing insight into a life that has been studied and analyzed in minute detail, the book offered the following tidbits:

The Accident

• Diana and Dodi WERE engaged. They were planning a good and happy life together.
• The car they were riding in was being driven at high speed by an intoxicated Henri Paul, trying to escape the paparazzi, when it lost control after hitting another car. It was an accident; neither Prince Charles nor the Queen had any hand in it.
• During that last ride, Diana was scared and terrified, and had asked Dodi to tell Henri to be careful.
• She knew she was going to die before the crash happened; she saw her life flash before her eyes.
• Her death was drawn-out and tortuous: "I knew I couldn't come back to life, and I couldn't die completely.....It was so miserable. I was so unhappy." (p. 16).
• After she died, Diana was in a confused, lonely state. She remained connected to the Earth; she roamed around the crash site (and Paris in general), watched her sons at Balmoral Castle, Fergie, and saw her brother and his family. Spirit guides eventually helped Princess Diana transition over to the Other Side.
• At Balmoral, Prince Charles tried his best to comfort his sons. Although, according to Diana, he no longer loved and cared for her, he didn't want Princes William and Harry to lose their mother. On the other hand, the Queen "is really quite ruthless and cold and was pleased that I was gone and out of the way" (pp. 21-22).
• Prince William was very close to Diana, and instinctively knew that his mother had died. Although he was shaken and felt shattered, he felt a responsibility to take care of Harry, and to be brave and to carry on.

Life on the Other Side

• Diana is "studying, contemplating, thinking, living and serious a lot of the time in my contemplation of things I need to study and learn" (p. 28).

Advice to Mankind

• God is always with us and loves us very much, and provides comfort and advice, if only we would be quiet and listen to Him. In His Eyes, we are all royalty.
• Love "is the glue that holds everything together".

Diana's Message to William and Harry

• Diana is very much alive.
• She loves William and Harry so very much, and they will all be reunited one day.
• Although her time with her sons was short, Diana was able to teach them how to do their jobs.
• The boys must love each other and use their royal statuses to make the world a better place.
• She is always with them in their hearts and memories. She visits them and talks to them in their dreams. When they miss her, they must pray, and Diana will hear their prayers.
• William and Harry must place their trust in God.

Wherever she is, I hope that Diana is with Jesus, who "sticketh closer than a brother" (Proverbs 18:24), the Perfect Man who will never abandon, betray, or disappoint her.

Prince Charles and Camilla: My weird dream

I had an interesting dream last night about Prince Charles and Camilla. It started with me and Camilla in the back of a car, being driven to a rectory/church. She was wearing purple, and was upset, although I didn't quite know why. When we arrived, Camilla started crying inconsolably.
She walked down one path to the rectory/church; I took another path. I kept on looking for her and calling out her name. I was fiercely protective of her.

Next thing I knew, I was seated in the audience at a talk show. William and Harry were also in the audience somewhere. During the show, it was revealed that Charles had been cheating on Camilla with one of her closest confidants. There were videos and photos of him and his mistress cuddling, hugging, and playing footsie. I thought how ironic it was that Charles was cheating on Camilla with another woman, just as he had cheated on Diana with Camilla.

Then, when I looked down, I realized I was naked, and slouched forward as much as possible to hide my nakedness...
