Afterthoughts after Queen Elizabeth's lI Death

The meaning I attach to the Queen mother's passing,
happening only a few days after the day of our wedding is significant. It says to me that the old must make room for the young on this earth, that this is part of the cycle of life. Each generation must make space for the next one to come.
I know she was not waiting for us to marry before she died, but it's a nice thought at least.
Annik sorry the Queen won't be alive for you and Kyles wedding. But maybe you can imagine her as some bodiless spirit looking down from the heavens, down on the venue you are getting married at.
Benjamin Britian's Gloriana was being played on the radio this morning which gave form to these excited thoughts.
