Princess Murks is thoughtful, caring, humble and forbearing

Princess Murks was asked if there has been anything or anybody in Princesses' life to remember and recall as "thoughtful, caring, humble and forbearing (= motherly)". To have as an example, as somebody/-thing to look up to. And how this person or thing is like - to describe it more.
What did Princess Murks recall?
From Princess Murks' side there should be few more things added to this list of "motherly" characteristics. Because those people, who Princess Murks admires as "mothers", have those too. One is: "laziness" and the other "ability to include".
You wonder how can laziness be motherly? Very simple logic. In order to be there for other people to take care of them and forbear their moods and everything.. one has to be lazy enough for not to want to make everything by her/himself, not to have control over what is taking place and how the things are done. Mother has many responsibilities already and being lazy just helps not to lose oneself into the responsibility of being a good and caring mother.
"Ability to include" drives from being lazy. It is much easier to include other people to whatever you have to do at home and make every activity attractive to them. These other people do not have to be only kids but other members of the family, friends, relatives, visitors...
And it is NOT just to make mothers' life easier but the others' life more fun!
So, maybe the ideal mother-figure for Princess Murks is Tom Sawyer when he was painting fence planks.

Princess Murks lives among cranky people

Crankiness is in everyone. Sometimes one just gets cranky as they can sometimes get happy or energetic or tired or.. any mood. One just feels like saying something bad or hurting and annoying to the others. just to annoy their seemingly peaceful environment. To shock them. To see if they get any reaction. To let them start being cranky back and in this way live out ones crankiness in deeper and deeper levels. Sometimes is just so nice to be cranky. Just like this.
- There was a old man in his garden. Few people gathered to talk behind his garden. He let out his limping dog. When the dog was tired of barking he came out himself. He started to shout, brag and insult. He did it with the same tone as the dog had been barking before. At first the friends did not even understand that it was not the dog anymore but the man. He just continued and continued and continued. Seems that the people made his day - he could live out his crankiness on them and maybe his dog did not get beaten up on this day.
- There was a wife who was tired of her life, of her two kids and, the most of all, of her aging husband. She was nice and cheerful to talk to. But when the kids were around, her main words to them was to order them be more quiet. But when the husband was around, she ignored his discussions and talks, instead interrupter him with her creeping stories about how unhappy she has been in their bast, describing their most bonding moments with the disgust and troublesome. She has the skill to be cranky int he most hidden and deep-hurting way.
- There was a young girl working in a lunch-restaurant. She never smiles. She just comes silently to your table and stands. You notice her only because you want to order some food. She can mainly repeat what you are saying and give comments like "mmhm" and "mkhmm". All her behavior is impolite and you have no idea what is the reason. You even got the feeling as you insulted her somehow or.. what the hell happened to her???

Princess Murks has a castle and a princess tower

"Where am I?" asks Princess Murks. In a huge house!!! In a huge castle. With a tower. A huge suite and a bath in the tower. Princess Murks needs to grow her hair long-long that the prince could climb up to the tower to give some company :). Instead, the grass is growing too high in the park - where is the gardener?
It is a bit lonely here alone in this castle. Although, in order to change the setting, change the atmosphere, Princess Murks just needs to change the room or the floor. To take some stairs and already she is in another apartment. In another space. Easy. Still, strange to be alone.
Luckily she is not alone. There are many things. There is a clock that sings every hour a a forest-bird. And there are even 20 fish swimming in their huge aquarium. They are nice and social. Soon there will be also a dog, and maybe a cat, and a baby...
Princess Murks thinks that all things should have a electronic chip and Princess Murks should have a remote control to find them. For example, the remote control has buttons like "hair brush", "crown", "my PhD-material", "sandwich", "cell phone", etc. And the stuff Princess Murks is looking for starts piping when she uses the buttons. Would be easy!
Now Princess Murks is sitting in the library room. But soon she will go and shorten some grass in the garden. It is not been raining anymore for some hours.

Princess Murks is becoming more-n-more selfish

"The only thing important is what I want," thinks Princess Murks.
If somebody is not willing to please Princess Murks, she becomes cranky. She becomes cranky when the chef in a restaurant is not willing to make changes in the menu and prepare an additional small salad for Princess Murks.
If Princess Murks is sleepy then even the most interesting travel-stories by friends do not keep her awake. She becomes rued and says... "Screw you, I am going to bed!"
If somebody wants to give Princess Murks some extra work to do. Write something... Analyze something... Give some ideas about something that you already know... Something, something. Princess Murks is willing to do it only if the time and place and the duration fits her. Princess Murks can not sit in the chair more than an hour, and in the afternoon she wants to have a nap, and preferably there should be drinking water available all the time, and... So, anything that does not fit these conditions is boring and irrelevant.
Princess Murks is not willing to take any extra responsibilities, any extra things. She wants to chill and relax and read some interesting books and think by herself and do not care if anybody else is around or not. Just Princess Murks is important. Only her.

Princess Murks is an onion

Fresh onion is so juicy and tasty! Mmm. The juice is jumping to your eyes when you cut it, it spreads all over the cutting board, the table the clothes... the knife is tripping from the juice. And the smell is so inviting... mmm! "Bite me fresh or fry me on the pan and add me to your food. I can make everything taste so good," it says.. And the taste is amazing... in the source, grilled on the grill, fried to add to risotto... mmmm...
And onions are so interesting. They have such an interesting structure. Layer on another layer. One can get lost into them. One just wants to see what is under one layer.. is the next one the same color the same structure or is there any variance any dispersion between the color, the patterns, the size, the... Onions are the most interesting and amazing and the most tasty vegetables in the world! Princess Murks wants to be an onion.

Princess Murks is a princess

Princess Murks is a princess. Nothing new in this sentence. This is as obvious as any simple logical formula. Red apple is red colored, paper bag is made of paper, spring-flowers can be found during spring, etc.
But what does it really mean to be a princess? Besides wearing a crown, obviously. How does Princess Murks recognize that she really is a princess? Where does this conviction origin from?

Being a princess appears for Princess Murks mainly in coming-true dreams and wishes. Somehow it is so easy to think "Ooou, would be so nice if it would happen like this..." and it happens like this. Or, "Ouuuu, I so much would like to have something like this..." and Princess Murks is getting what she wishes for. Sometimes she gets even more than Princess Murks can imagine beforehand. All these small nice things are so easy to happen. They come so suddenly and so often that there is hardly any time to enjoy and appreciate one when the next one is already knocking behind the door.
The time is full of small happy endings. And seems like the life continues to go on happily ever after.
That is how it is to be a princess, to be Princess Murks :D.

Princess Murks is a package

Princess Murks is a package. Cover for some gift or something.. So far, nobody really knows what is inside there because nobody has not tried to open it or even to peek inside. It is not yet the time to open. Everyone has to wait. And longer one waits before opening the package the longer one is getting curious and impatient - I already want to know what is in there! I can not wait any more!
What is it there? Is it big or small thing? Is it round or has corners? What color does it have? What can do with it? Is it something beautiful or just interesting? Within time the wrapped and hidden thing is getting more precious, more waited, more expected to be something really-really intriguing.
But now, one can only admire the package and wait till the time is right to unwrap it.
