WHEN ONE CURTAIN CLOSES

They say it comes in 3s.  Maybe you have personal experience with that?  In celebrity news, we sadly lost George Michael, Carrie Fisher, and Debbie Reynolds this week.   Talented singer, good writer (and Princess), and an icon starlet.   I thought of Debbie Reynolds just the other day.  Watching a number in La La Land, reminded me of her and her fellas in Singin' in the Rain.  Enjoy the link!  They are in a better place.  Rest in peace. 

Principle in the type:  "Before embarking on any journey we like to have some assurance of a round-trip ticket.  Returning from earth to life in our heavenly home requires passage through--and not around--the doors of death.  We were born to die, and we die to live (Corinthians).  As seedlings of God, we barely blossom on earth, we fully flower in heaven."     Russell M. Nelson

Love story to the umpth degree.  Storybook.      Nancy Reagan:  " 'I've had quite a life, when you stop and think about it," she once told a Vanity Fair reporter. "I'm very lucky. Especially with Ronnie -- I was the happiest girl in the world when I became we." '  link          Ronald Reagan to Nancy:  " 'I more than love you, I'm not whole without you. You are life itself to me. When you are gone, I'm waiting for you to return so I can start living again.' "   link
