I did have high hopes for her. But it’s been one extravagant or protocol-snubbing thing after another, things that are a slap in the face of one of the most dutiful yet graceful monarchs of all Western history who has genuinely earned respect and deserves better from her grandson and his lady.
I hope the two of them get their priorities in order. Our American concepts of freedom do not readily apply to their special situation with its many obligations in exchange for all the good stuff, including the expensive protection officers who must accompany them to the U.S. while she has her very special Christmas made to order only for her.
Marry in haste, regret it at leisure.
Yeah. Even though I don’t think this is a *direct* analogy (as there is such a loveliness radiating from Will and Kate) — for some reason the verse “the elder shall serve the younger” (re: Jacob and Esau) keeps coming to mind.
I perceive a very strong calling on the Sussexes. Regardless of what the “earthly” titles and things dictate.
And I think Meghan specifically represents the modern world and the monarchy represents tradition/history and how both need each other. But right now there is tension.
