The sun is rising in England and in just a few hours the entire world will watch history take place as HRH Prince William of Wales marries Catherine Middleton. Like those that have gone before them they will unite in a historical matrimony as an entire world watches. Though I was not yet born when Charles and Diana got married I still remember getting up to watch Diana's funeral. I think today another day I will remember for the rest of my life. Regardless of whether or not you are "into" this it is a historical event. It is an exuberant day that has brought an entire nation together and has people in every country watching. Kate Middleton will walk into Westminster Abbey a commoner and walk out a royal. She is living out a real life fairytale and today I think she just might be the luckiest girl in the world!
