King Charles' 75th birthday next week is supposed to be a festive day, but it is overshadowed by Prince Harry's cruel refusal.
As father and son, the relationship between them has always been not harmonious, and this time Harry once again rejected Charles's invitation, which makes people worry that the father and son are out of luck and difficult to break the ice.
Looking back, little Harry was a cheerful and happy child, but after the early death of his mother, Princess Diana, he became introverted and gloomy.
At that time, he was still young, facing all kinds of injustice from inside and outside the London royal family, and his heart was full of grief and sadness that he was not understood.
The fond memories with his own mother became a treasure that he carefully cared for, and his father Charles was a cold and unforgiving image in his eyes. A family of four should have been warm and happy, but the cruel fate of mother and son has become an indelible pain in Harry's heart.
Growing up, Harry chose to serve in the military, avoiding royal life. That seemed to be his way of escaping his sadness for a while. On the training ground and on the battlefield, he found his career and mission, but the loss of his family relationship was still hidden in his heart.
It wasn't until he met Meghan that Harry's long-closed heart was touched for the first time. The beautiful and kind Meghan has become his soulmate, and Harry has rediscovered his passion and purpose as a human being.
Now a father, Harry has a deep sense of responsibility to his wife and children. In order to protect his wife Meghan from being troubled, he resolutely decided to withdraw from royal life and find his place overseas.
This certainly broke Charles's heart, but Harry's choice was not entirely out of rebellion, but out of protection of his new family.
In fact, Charles has always felt guilty about his son. Back then, he couldn't renew Diana's life, and he couldn't make his son feel his father's love, which became an eternal pain in his heart.
Even if Harry publicly criticized the royal family, Charles didn't care, and just wanted to do everything he could to make up for his mistakes and make his son feel cared for.
This birthday party was supposed to be a great opportunity. Charles carefully prepares, hoping that his son can reunite with him and resolve past misunderstandings.
He even invited Meghan, hoping to pull in the father-son relationship with Harry through this daughter-in-law. However, Harry's rejection was undoubtedly a blow to his ideals, and he was also cast a shadow of disappointment over the festive day.
In fact, Harry is also in a dilemma. He still has feelings for his father and hopes to be recognized and encouraged. But all kinds of helplessness in real life made him unable to follow his heart to attend the party. Even if there was the slightest possibility of hurting his wife and children, he would not risk it.
Home and everything is prosperous", this time Harry's absence makes us realize the complexity of family relationships again.
There is a generation gap and misunderstanding between father and son, and time cannot be bridged;Wives and children redefine one's responsibilities and are difficult to reconcile;Everyone has their own aspirations, but blood is thicker than water.
We sincerely hope that this father and son, who are bound by fate, can find a state of understanding and tolerance, support each other and get through the difficulties together.
Life won't be easy, but with family by your side, the journey won't be so lonely. It's also a precious strength that we ordinary people can draw from the royal story.
Let's treat our families with warmth and care, dissolve knots, and rebuild trust. This year's winter is coming, go and bring that cup of hot tea to your father, give him a hug, and talk about old things.
Cherish the people around you, because tomorrow may not be there, and we can create infinite understanding in our limited time. That's the essence of life, isn't it?
