Modern Gods

From the beginning of time, monarchy has been looked down upon by the very people that have accepted it. However, keeping in mind, that they only accepted the monarchy, like the monotony of the world, didn't desire it.

Someone once told me that the monarch is to be the Custodian that his realm needs. The royals were depicted as a reflection of the Modern Gods amongst mortals.
However, in my eye, Modern Gods are a concept that was used to feed the egos of the Elite, where monarchy lost its innate virtue and was reduced to a marionette of the bloated pride that was nested in the minds of the Excellency.

I know that I am different. I want not to be a Custodian, for the world is what it needs.
I stand here, in service of the Crown because the world wants it to be here.
And that is why, I say, that I want to be a leader, not a Custodian, not a Guardian, a Leader.
A Leader that the world doesn't need.
A Leader that the world wants, desires and adores.

However, sometime back I realized that I was never treated like I was different because no one wanted me to know how different I am.  Every time something nice happened to me, every time I said something exceptional, people tried to normalize how exceptional these things were. That is when I cou...

Privilege and Burden

The crown isn't just a mere ornament to be worn, it's a privilege and a burden.  For you sit with your head high, the crown embellished with precious stones, while the others bow. Privilege.  But, you can not look down, for even a slight tilt of the head, can make you lose the crown. Burden.  For you can wave and smile when thousands gather around to get just one glimpse of you. Privilege.  But you can't laugh your heart out when you find something funny in front of those same people. Burden.  But it's rare to find a person who can do both. The crown has the final say in everything yet the bearer of the crown doesn't have a voice.  But the true monarch can't be just anybody, because the bearer of the crown might be a puppet of these strings, but a monarch is one who controls everything. Smile when they have to, laugh when they want, hold their heads high when they have to but tilt their heads in disagreement when they want to.  Privilege and burden exi...
