This may be remembered as one of the darkest weeks in modern history. My
deepest
feelings go out to anyone in England, since you were directly affected by
Princess
Diana's passing. Our world will never be the same after this tragedy, yet we
should
be thankful that we were blessed with their presence as long as we have. As
Longfellow said, "The air is full of farewells to the dying, and mournings for
the
dead." The air is much heavier today.
