6 Things I Love About Queen Elizabeth
I had an unexpected thought watching Queen Elizabeth on television the other day: I’ll be sad when she passes. I don’t say that about many public figures, especially monarchs, but she’s the only Queen of England I’ve ever known. When she dies, I’ll miss her, probably for these six reasons…– There she was, this stooped, tiny 95 year-old figure. The Queen looks old these days, really old.
When she passes, it will be the end of a long, healthy era in British history. And I can’t help but note how some of England’s longest-reigning and most successful monarchs – Elizabeth I, Queen Victoria, and now Elizabeth II — have all been women. I know that not all British love or even like the Queen, but as an American, I’ve always been entranced by her.
And like many people on this planet, as I watch her age like the rest of us mortals…I realize I’ll miss her when she’s gone.How do you feel about Queen Elizabeth? Comments are always welcome and if you like, please share. Thank you!
