Haha, yes thank you for writing this and exploring the significance of the event! I've been so curious about the depth of feeling people profess which I do not share. And the idea of National Mourning - I've felt sceptical about 'state sanctioned grief'. Do we grieve the literal queen in proportion to the unprocessed personal and ecological grief we carry? Or perhaps, as you hint at, to the degree that we have not owned our inner monarch and become sovereign.
Thanks to Sarah for requesting a piece on the Queen. If anyone else has something they'd like me to write about then you can suggest it here. No promises I'll do it, but will entertain the thought.
