In a piece on CBS's '60 Minutes tonight,' Prince Harry said, "The war for me, unknowingly was, when my mum died." Anderson Cooper followed up with, "Who were you fighting?" Harry replied, "Myself."
Harry went on to elaborate that he was angry and resentful toward the British Press. He said, "It was obvious to us as kids, the British Press's part, in our mother's misery." The piece was more expansive than just this tidbit from the news program.
I think this bit stands out and says something significant about individual human stories. Our pain and traumas shape and form us over the course of time. The younger me would deny the traumatic events impacted me at all, but the older me would ask my younger self, "Who were you fighting? I know that I was in denial. I would tell my younger self, 'unknowingly,' the drama of my life is the trauma played out on the movie screen of my story. Redemption is possible, but time needs to pass and I have to make my mistakes, and my story needs to include introspection and maturity to see that those events are the war for me.
Good luck Harry. Good luck.
