Sun
and Star Princess
Her name is Diana. When she appears
home, the life in it drastically changes. The world suddenly erupts and starts
to turn, sparkling like a Christmas ornament. She bursts; all the winds of the Atlantic
blow the doors and the windows wide open, uplifting the curtain sails that
sweep the gray dust from our faces. In the drowsy rooms, bells ring
unceasingly: she is laughing. And what’s more, in them reign music. Just as the
Princess awakens, she begins to sing and laugh. And we dance; laughing and
singing along with her.
Our Sun and Star is again with us! We
become alive: we begin to breathe in the height of fresh air, flying away in
the streams of whirling funnels and whirlpools of color, ideas, and sounds. She
creates! Her appearance is always a sudden miracle, and you are never ready;
she destroys walls and flips the soul. Her eyes are enormous, in them is
reflected the whole world, – such helpless beauty, lost, and calling. When she
plays on her piano, putting her heart on the keyboard, stars scatter from under
her fingertips. It hurts, its rays pierce you, but you now finally know what
life is.
The Sun Princess has an incredible
kindness. She loves everyone, especially cats, and she wants to help everyone
obtain the desire to create, sing and laugh. But sometimes, she cries. A stream
of tears would run down her rosy cheeks, but she does not blame anyone, she
just sympathizes those who have offended or
misunderstood her. And then she would leave because you can only sing and laugh
when there is love in the air. She leaves, and then begins a snowfall…
Right behind her back falls a thick, gray and endless snow, as if the world lost
all the colors as it immerses itself in an icy shroud. Please, never be
insulted, Princess! Never approach them with festive curiosity, do not touch,
and do not hurt their indifference. After all, Sunny Princesses are hostesses
of poetry. Poems walk after them like a family of loyal dogs in their Sky
Castles. They are ready to attack and bite anyone who looks at the subject of
their adoration with not the same intensity of admiration and awe.
Well, let’s not talk about sad things
here. After all, we love our Princess with all our hearts with all of her
swirls and ideas from which our home and soul burst at the seams and stagger
and lose their balance. But we rejoice! We are happy, we feel the fresh wind of
Creation and what comes out of it, and we thank God that he trusted and opened
us her soul. And we also want to say that our Sun and Star is humble and
unassuming. She can huddle in the tiny kitchen or someone’s couch, even though
it is not to size or scale, and she stays Sunny in any life circumstances. She
can compose her songs anywhere that she hears music that covers her head with a
wave of anxiety and compassion. She does not think much about earthly things,
and she does not participate in the baseless pursuit of material possession.
Princesses live in their Sky Castles and do not envy worldly acquisitions.
Maybe they are coming from this galaxy?
What is the secret of the appearance of
the Sun Princess? Ours was born under a huge Blue Star. Not too long from the
birth of my daughter, at nights I would go out to breathe fresh air from the
balcony. I always met with the star as I looked at the sky. I hid behind the
clothes hanging on the laundry line, hiding from the star’s unbearable and
frightening beauty. I did not know anything about the Age of Aquarius, which is
characterized by a time of blossoming, spiritual growth, and creative freedom.
In my heart I felt intensely overwhelmed; I felt the coming of a grand event.
Of course, I linked all this to the upcoming birth of a child. But how is it
that that with our Princess, this feeling of grandiose and wonder never leaves.
In fact, her day of birth is also unique and significant to the world, and to
Russian History.
And moreover, our girl grew amongst her
dad’s songs and her mom’s poems, surrounded with stories under the Christmas
tree which stood in our home from December to February. From childhood, she was
nurtured in the spirit of mystery, awaiting a miracle, in the aroma of winter
forests and Christmas tree resin: the little Princess lived in the spirit of
creativity. At two years she loved Daniel Harms, and she created adorable
stories. From some paper, she created vivid words using color and imagination.
She worked hard and in everything she noticed hidden magic. She did not give
anyone rest, seizing everyone in her currents of inspiration. Perhaps it was good
for her that she was born in Russia in a Russian family, and soon ended up in
America. Perhaps, she was lucky with friends and cats and with a beautiful
prince. But most importantly: she always felt that the world was good to her,
that she is right and can do anything. And that she is understood.
In December of this year, the Princess
again is leaving her home. She is flying to Europe where she wants to deeply
study painting, dive into history, and visit museums and art galleries, and to
see the world’s masterpieces from masters. Until we meet again, Sun and Star!
Come home sooner. Do not let our home become dusty and the flowers wither
without your voice and laughter. Being born under an incredible star, you are
going on your personal path, marked by its rays. You belong to the most
excellent and exalted things on Earth and in this world. But we always wait for
you because we love you and walk together with you in all your routes. Please
never forget about that, and sometimes visit so that you can turn our lives
again! Thank you! Thank you for the stars, for the wind, and for the eternity
in your eyes that has become near and dear to us. Fly higher, shine on all, and
live your life like how your soul wants to live.
With her father, Nail Gumerov, near the
White House
December. 5th – 2016.
Indigo children save and protect our
world.
They call us into a miracle.
