While 82 years old, Leonard Cohen's death still came somewhat unexpectedly.  His most known and covered song may be Hallelujah.  It's deep and has been widely interpreted.  The first line, "Now, I've heard there was a secret chord/That David played, and it pleased the Lord," is my favorite.  Makes me think of God, and of music.  Two of my favorite thoughts.     news

Tracy Morgan told Complex magazine he talked to God, and God talked to him, after his 2014 accident, where he nearly lost his life.  "You're never going to be normal after you go through something like that," said Morgan.  He is back to work now, healthy, up and at it.  And talking to God?  Never a bad idea.    story

Principle in the type:  Yet is full of charming company, full of God's thoughts, a place of peace and safety amid the most exalted grandeur and eager enthusiastic action, a new song, a lace of beginnings abounding in first lessons of life, mountain-building, eternal, invincible, unbreakable order; with sermons in stones, storms, trees, flowers, and animals brimful of humanity. . .

In September "Queen Elizabeth II became the longest reigning British monarch in history, passing the record set by her grandmother, Queen Victoria"   She's hip to the times as well, last year writing her first tweet.   news       “Inevitably, a long life can pass by many milestones. My own is no exception.  But I thank you all . . . for your touching messages of great kindness."    news              It's good to be Queen.

Principle in the type:  "Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate.  Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.  It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us.  We ask ourselves:  'Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous?'  Actually, who are you not to be?   You are a child of God.  Your playing small doesn't serve the world."                Nelson Mandela
