celestial

Everything is born and dies, even stars. They’re just remembered a lot longer. I wonder if it’s the reason we call some people stars, because they’re more likely to be remembered. Maybe thats why the Gods put heroes up there too, and monsters and Queens, so we wouldn’t forget their stories. No one wants their story to be forgotton.

    That’s beautiful.

    I like your new blog a lot, very inspirational.

    I absolutely love this new blog of yours, Princess’! ^^ The Princess Portal was always so sugary sweet — Which is lovely, of course, but it was almost like eating sweets for breakfast, lunch, and dinner.

    On the other hand, The Lost Princess has sweet tastes, savoury tastes, and possibly even a hint of darker, almost bitter tastes within — Like dark chocolate instead of white chocolate — And it’s so refreshing. ^^

    I’ve been coming here and reading all of your posts since you opened … I can’t help it, they’re all so compelling and fun to read!

    Keep up the great picture book writings!

    Makes you think if the story you’re writing now in life will be forgotten, or if it will at least still shine for some people.

      Stars are one of my favourite things. I wish I could see more of them from here.

    I always think it’s crazy that some of the stars we’re looking at could have burned out long ago because of the distance the light has to travel to reach us. So really, stars do live on after death in a way.

    • Skylark said:

      I think its beautiful, they way they are remembered like that so far from home.

    Beautiful! Stars are so pretty ~<3 and what Nightingale said is true, we’re still seing the stars that died millions of years ago :) like the good that people have done will still be seen even years after they’re gone

      Sometimes I wish we’d use the word ‘star’ not for actors and musicians, but for the people that really leave a mark on the world. That
      ‘s more appropriate, don’t you think?

      • Azu said:

        Definitely! In Spanish it’s more common to use the word star for people who are gifted and charismatic, and not so much for celebrities.
