Reborn To Love You

I'll find you, I promise

'Remember, a crown is not a symbol of power, it is a responsibility to serve ..... your kingdom is not yours, but your people's, people are the kingdom'.

His figure being reflected in the mirror, torn between sadness and determination, exhaustion has taken a layer on his face, trying to practice his smile to make it look as natural as he could, being interrupted by a knock that echoed the slient room

"Phra ong chao, it's time to leave" the head of the royal guard announced letting boom know the time, 'it's time to leave' rang in his ears, was it because the room was slient that it echoed a little too much ?, there came another knock, he knew it was his final cue

"Coming" .. he didn't want to leave, but his father entrusted the kingdom in his hands, the one thing that gave boom the strength to move his legs to walk.
......

The bustling city of Bangkok, speaks of one thing the coronation of his royal highness tharatorn jantharaworakarn, all busy and all dressed in thai traditional clothes awaits the arrival of the crown prince.

Galloping it's way into Wat Phra Kaew, the golden pavilion, shining under the risen sun, gained all the attention from the people, the royal guards on all sides with the head of the royal guard leading the way, musicians belting out the tunes of centuries through their instruments garnered a series of reaction from the people. The kingdom loved the thought of boom being the king, it knew how well bred boom is, him as the king the country will flourish.

At the alter stood the elder monk, a servant of Buddha, a serene smile plastered on his face upon the arrival of the new king, he saw boom grow up to be trustworthy enough to be the next king, frequent visits to the temple was made by arthit, boom, pond and also aou, he was fond of the four, dearest to his heart, there was never a day that passed without the mention of their names in the temple, from normal enquiry on when they will come to prayers to provide those four the best health and it will be the same from now on.

Walking up to the alter, boom wai the Emerald Buddha and turned to his side to look at the man who once said 'you will be of a great leader', a slight and weak smile curved the corners of his lips.

"Elder monk, do you really think I'm ready ??" this was a question that kept on going in circles for boom, but he couldn't find the answer.

"Yes, you are- " before the he
could finish boom spoke

"But without him here to guide me and to tell me I'm doing a good job" pausing a bit to let out a sigh, boom looked at the man before him

"If he hadn't known, then he wouldn't have made you the crown prince, his earthly body has only left us, but the soul of his, remains and that will guide you throughout" with that he asked boom to kneel before the Emerald Buddha on silk cushion

"Today we all bear witness to the blessings of Buddha, the coronation of the new king of thailand, beings" the elder monk announced to the crowd, some was happy, some didn't bother, some was upset and angry and some ..... only came for the free food.

Wat Phra Kaew, was lit under the sunlight. In the corners hung foral garlands a beautiful mix of jasmine, orchids and marigolds, with every brush of air their smell spread throughout the temple. The incense and perfectly placed candles dim golden light being reflected against the deep red and golden silk drapes which has woven the Thai traditional patterns. With the air being filled with traditional thai music Wat Phra Kaew has completely transformed itself to be a divine place to prepare for the new Kings ascent.

The ceremony started by the scared water anointment, water drawn from the most revered rivers across thailand, symbolising the unity that will continue to flourish under the new king. High ranking officials, including the Vulnerable monks, the prime minister, and members of the royal family, took turns pouring the sacred water over Boom's hands as he sits, cupping his hands together to receive the blessing. The water is poured from special golden vessel, called bencharong, symbolizing purity and divine blessing.
