Queen's Legacy

Last Thursday Queen Elizabeth passed away in Balmoral. The Queen left a lasting effect on my life. She was always the Queen throughout my life so as a child I would look up to the Queen as a kind of Grandmother of the nation.  

She was never ashamed to believe in Jesus Christ and the works he did on the cross for all mankind. I was always impressed by that because we live in secular society that almost condemns people for sharing their faith. As far as I remember, every speech she did on Christmas she mentioned the deeds that Jesus did for the people and his teachings.

The biggest influence she had on my life was her decision to never retire. She was always working throughout her life doing royal duties, I think I will do the same. I will try to continue working long after I reach the age of retirement. I could change my view though but if my attitude remains the same then I will never retire and that decision would stem from the Queen's influence on my life.

Sad Day

Jacob, my son. 
On Thursday, just over a day ago the Queen died. I feel pity for the royal family at this time. The Queen was always in my life in one way or another; I would listen to the Queen's Speech at Christmas or watch parades on her birthday. I would see her mark on money. 

On the day of the Queen's death I was playing sega columns from the 90s on my mini flashback sega Mega drive. Then I went to pick you up from the Nursery. There was a deluge of rain and we were soaked. We got home dried off and we watched some cartoons for a little while. Then we rushed to the pet shop to get a bubbler for our pet fish. 
It was then that we learned that the Queen had a medical emergency in Balmoral. Later we were eating dinner and that was when we learned that Queen had passed away. I was shocked son, I wasn't expecting the Queen to die now because she had just welcomed the new Prime Minister and seemed healthy. 

Now Prince Charles is King Charles III. I wish him the best, long life and good health.
