I am never more grateful to be an English woman than when I get back to Heathrow. Not only because the immigration queue is faster but upon returning to my country I am aware of the wealth and the liberty that merely being born there affords me. The choices that I have, my personal freedom, England for me has been a state of independence and will always be a state of grace.
