The End of An Era

Dear all,

I’m sure you’ve heard the news that Queen Elizabeth II of the United Kingdom died yesterday.

She dedicated her life to her duty. A duty which lasted 70 years. She worked with dignity and faithfulness to what she believed in. In an ever changing world, she remained a constant – a rock for many people.  Ascending the throne at the young age of 25, her ability to remain steady and focused no matter what happened in the UK and globally never faltered. Even through the death of her husband, she continued her work with the same determined resolve right up to the end of her life aged 96.

While I am not a royalist as I believe that no single person is above another, I do deeply admire someone who was able to work with such great moral integrity over such a long period of time and who was held in such great respect by so many around the world. She was an inspiration in many ways.

My best wishes to you all,

Liz

    Dear Liz we are all mortal and feel the pain of the English people at the demise of the Queen,she was an epitome of beauty and judiciously performed her duties as a wife,mother and her exaled role as the Queen of England. May her soul rest in peace.

  6. Indeed a force to reckon with… She will be missed not only by her family but also by the vast populace of Britain and many other nations that admired her indomitable spirit and energy. It is said that: Uneasy lies the head that wears a crown, but for 70 years the great Queen Elizabeth 2 has been an exception to the rule. May she be united with her beloved and her creator.

  7. ASLAM PERVAIZ says

    Indeed, Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II remains the inspirational figure ever! Her Majesty will stay one of the greatest inspirational persons ever. The sober and beloved Queen who will remain in our hearts and thoughts forever. I do not have words to describe her great personality but remember her saying “I declare before you all that my whole life, whether it be long or short, shall be devoted to your service and the service of our great imperial family to which we all belong.’ ‘When peace comes, remember it will be for us, the children of today, to make the world of tomorrow a better and happier place”

  8. On behalf of myself and many of my compatriots, I am extending my sincere condolences to all Royal Family and all Britons. Here in Kazakhstan, many people are very saddened to hear about the passing of Her Majesty The Queen.
    May God bless her soul and give her rest in peace.

    Being a ctizen in Sri Lanka, a commonwealth country, I feel this Eternal Departure as if a kin of mine commited.
    ‘Elizabeathan’ is an era that created the “innovations’ in all spheres on earth.
    Mother, God bless You!

    Toutes nos condoléances à sa famille ainsi qu’à tous les siens. la Reine a été le symbole de l’humilité et la Concorde de l’humanité. Que son âme repose en paix

  11. Bonse Amponsah says

    Grieve is the price we pay for love.
    There was once an IELTS reading passage about King Charles II ‘ To catch a king’
    Maybe a monarchical passage can drop in the near future.

  12. Zahra Naalchifard says

    She will stay in our mind and heart forever
    She was best queen

  13. Zahra Naalchifard says

    Wonderful queen ,we all miss you
    We will stay in our mind and heart forever

  14. Roselyn C says

    That is a heart warming message, Liz. The queen is indeed a symbol of modesty and integrity as she tirelessly performed her duties with an immense dedication. While it is truly sad to lose her, I find solace in the fact that she is at peace eternally. My heart goes out to the Royal Family and to the British people who lost not only a one-of-a-kind monarch but also a loving mother and grandmother. She is the only monarch that I have known growing up and eventually have come to love even though I came from a country that is not one of her constituents. May God rest her soul.

  15. Ali El-Hirbawi says

    The Queen was wise and smart. The British people adores her. May her soul rest in peace.

  16. Amena Khatun says

    I am feeling sad to hear this news, thank you to share your views with us, we pray for her soul

  17. Levi Tavera Bermudez says

    I guess many knew of Qeen Elizabrth as the Heqd of the Monarch of Great Britain who survive a long time on the throne. Though, she had absorbed the massive intrigues and backdoor stories of her immediate family cicle throughout the years of being the crowned authority, i reckon she had not much of a choice but to iron this she can and leave it same all other she is not able to uncrease. Besides the mourning of the palace’s loss, i wonder if all eyes and ears are at a wait on the next to the throne’s stride to monarch’s ruling style …

  18. Mba Eberechukwu says

    The demise of the queen is really an end to an era!
    My condolences to the royal family and the entire UK at large. I pray that her soul may Rest In Peace.

  42. Susheel says

    Thanks Liz for your valuable reflections, through I strongly believe that there is no relevance of so called royalty with crowns and thrones till such persona of repute really have deeper feelings towards the harsh ground realities and able to effectively contribute significantly in making a difference in the lives of millions of deprived, hungry people across the globe.
    Appreciate if you could highlight her real contributions on ground realities, if at all, outside her palace and throne.

  43. Chisala says

    Touch Not Mine Anointed Ones and do my prophets no harm…! (She lived out this scripture to the max.)

    God Bless The Queen 👑

    My exaltation goes to our Commonwealth Mother Queen Elizabeth who dedicated her life to maintain strong the fellowship among the community despite global changes all over the world.

    It’s undeniable that she was guided along through God and all glory and honor goes to to God who picked her up for such position of grace and hard task. I’m from Mozambique and the will of God will prevail in the UK.

        Dear Liz,

        I want to start with words of encouragement. You are not only a wonderful person but a true professional also. The positivity in you will heal you. I immigrated to Canada 22 years back. I left my profession, because of my family responsibilities. I have been following you on YouTube since March 2022.
        Recently, I discovered that Britain is hiring physicians, and the pathway is simpler than in Canada and the US. Hence I decided to study for IELTS, and that’s how I discovered you. My daughter was diagnosed with an autoimmune illness at the age of 18. I can understand the feeling; Please stay positive, and continue to be that awesome lady with a beautiful smile.

        Currently, I live in California. Please email me anytime you feel like it. I am trying to get into the NHS. Hope to see you soon.

        I am really sad about the Queen’s demise.

        My prayers are with you.

        Nina Gill
        10th September 2022
