Thank you Queen Elizabeth

Britain's 93 year old monarch gave an address to her country that I found very inspiring.


"....“I hope in the years to come everyone will be able to take pride in how they responded to this challenge. And those who come after us will say the Britons of this generation were as strong as any. That the attributes of self-discipline, of quiet good-humoured resolve and of fellow-feeling still characterise this country. The pride in who we are is not a part of our past, it defines our present and our future. .... We should take comfort that while we may have more still to endure, better days will return: we will be with our friends again; we will be with our families again; we will meet again.  But for now, I send my thanks and warmest good wishes to you all."


Dignity, resolve, character.  Did I mention Dignity?  


May we all be able to "take pride in how we are responding" to this challenge. 


Thank you Queen Elizabeth....
