So, what can we learn from King Harald V's refusal to step down? For one thing, it's a major reminder that sometimes, you just have to show up and do the work. Even when it's hard, or boring, or just plain not fun. Because in the end, that's what being a responsible adult (or monarch) is all about.
And who knows - maybe one day we'll all be inspired to be a little more like King Harald V, and own our roles with the same level of commitment and dedication. Until then, we can just keep on admiring from afar - and maybe even pick up a few tips on how to be a total boss like this Norwegian monarch.
In any case, it's clear that King Harald V is here to stay - at least, for the foreseeable future. And honestly, we're pretty stoked to have him around, even if he is being a bit stubborn about the whole stepping-down thing. Long live the King, indeed!
