High Ambitions

I’ve long held held a theory that all little girls at one point in their lives dreamed of marrying a handsome prince and living in a castle. Most women will confirm this, although occasionally begrudgingly. The other day my friend surprised me by insisting that she never held such dreams.

“No. When I was a little girl I wanted to take over the world and make all the men worship me.”

Ah yes. Well your friends have always seen that in you.

    Fascinating. Maybe they’re interested in the dungeons that pretty much EVERY castle has and may be used for pleasures that might otherwise be frowned upon. ;)

    I think I have yet to meet a girl who doesn’t enjoy a little man-torture now and then.

    Well, why not?
    Marrying a handsome prince? Yeah, “handsome” part is important, but!
    Being someone’s personal belonging inside the strict limited area?
    No way! That is just as same as being a hostage.
    I would rather let the “KING” and then the solders kneel down.
    I said this when I was 5th grade…my teacher called my parents right away.
    Oh well…what can you do? Did I say anything wrong?

    I don’t know if there’s anything wrong with it. It’s the first time I’ve heard anything like it.

    I would have loved to listen in on that phone call from your teacher. I’m sure she was convinced you were headed for a life of crime and debauchery!
