During our recent visit to Scotland, we saw castles, castles and more castles. And these castles were more than just homes ... they were KINGDOMS! My little brain cannot comprehend what it would have been like to live in a Kingdom.
I can't help, but wonder to think what I could have been if I were born back in those days. Would I have been a royal girl living among the King's Court? Would the King have been my dad? Would I have been an heir to the thrown or received a crown? Or would I have been one of those peasant girls with smuges on my face and dirt under my nails, selling taddered roses along the streets in the nearest city and not ever knowing wealth and royalty is a state of mind?
What really gets me, like many of you, way back in my ancestory roots that is where I came from. While traveling and visiting these once majestic places and I thought, "did my family line run through here?" Well, only God knows where in the UK I came from, but I can still wonder if I would have had a sweet kingdom life ...
