Diana was an amazing soul. I spent my childhood days in a very poor town in Pakistan where most people didn't even own TVs or knew how to read. They wouldn't have have been able to tell you where England was or even knew such a place existed yet they knew Diana. I grew up hearing about how beautiful she was and what a great person she was. I remember the day she died when people of that small poor town mourned like they lost one of their own.
I grew up admiring her. To me, she was from another world. Growing up, I heard many stories, controversies of her and yes she might have had problems in her real life but her public work overshadows everything. Her private problems were her alone and I don't think we should use them to judge her esp. now when she is not here to defend herself. Because if you ask those people in that town today, what they remember about her, they would tell you about what a beautiful person she was and what a kind hearted soul she was. That she touched the lives of not only those she met but those who she never met as well. She was, in every sense of the world, truly a people's princess and nobody would ever be able to change that.
Her greatest legacies are not only all the work she has done but also the two amazing wonderful young men she brought into the world.
To see how Prince William and Prince Harry have turned out, after going through probably one of the hardest thing a person can through, losing the most important figure in a child's life. To see how much of their mother is in them, from William's carefree laugh to Harry's rebel side, it makes me feel Princess Diana is still with us. I am sure, if she was here today, she would have been so proud of her two boys and to see how they have grown up to be such grounded, normal and happy young men. To become everything Diana wanted them to be. It gives me great pride to see them trying to keep their mother's legecy alive and keep her work going.
