Elizabeth Regina

Elizabeth Regina, 1533-1603

A woman who forsake a life of her own, a husband, children, and a  private life, to raise her country to greatness. In a time of religious persecution, (The Inquisition) she provided a country the freedom of choice (the only one in Europe at that time) , the right to worship as you believed without fear of reprisal. She defended a country with a force of 3,000 against a force of 10,000, and won. I feel honored to share her name, for she was truly a woman ahead of her time. and someone worthy of that belief.
Despite attempts on her life, and the constant subterfuge and plots, she succeeded to raise a nation to greatnes, for she was the beginning of a Golden Age for England. . I guess if I had to chose a heroine, it would be her. It sure beats some shallow celebrity of these days.
Yes, lol..I did just watch "Elizabeth, the Golden years." It was an excellent movie. I would recommend it for any woman, or man...who can appreciate the power of women. Is is not a shame that we have been shoved back so far by men, that a female leader in this country has yet to be? History has proven that We are a force to be reckoned with. Maybe that is why so many fear a woman President. She would put those who came before her to shame.

Hail Elizabeth Regina, the Virgin Queen.
