Guardian of Scotland, Ode to a Hero. The tower of William Wallace.

Guardian of Scotland, Ode to a Hero. The tower of William Wallace.

Upon entering the town Stirling in Scotland, the Wallace monument reined over the landscape visible for all to see from any point as a constant reminder of the Guardian of Scotland who dedicated his life for Independance. The walk up to the monument was a humbling experience as you reflect on the deeds of people long past. I traversed the climb to the tower and all throughout it in bare feet to try and connect myself to the land and the history, it was a truly amazing experience.
