Harry and Meghan

“Once in a while, right in the middle of 
ordinary life, love gives us a fairy tale.”

If ever we needed a fairy tale escape, we needed one this week. The marriage of Harry and Meghan took us all to a magical place where love, diversity, grace, and the power of positive transformation were celebrated in ways we haven’t seen before — at least not in our own country.
Though I’ve always been an Anglophile (it’s in my blood), I’ve never been obsessed with royal weddings. But this time around, I can’t get enough of the ceremonial recaps on television. Thank you, Meghan and Harry, for renewing my sense of hope and showing the world what joy looks like again.  ~Cindy La Ferle
