When final means final


Malcolm Glazer died at 85 years old this week and his teams at Tampa Bay and at Manchester will no doubt send their farewells in significant and appropriate means. (Debt aside)

#1 Serena Williams and #2 Li Na are both out of the women's draw at the French Open in the 2nd round and said their farewells quickly and with sadness.

The Australian Defense Force said the drone search for Malaysian air #870 is terminated for at least two months. They are looking for someone else to take up the charge.

American author and poet Maya Angelou, an eloquent commentator on race and gender best known for her groundbreaking autobiography I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings, died at age 86 in North Carolina.

Things end...and other things begin.

Life includes death and reality is that we need to embrace that, and live with the reality/ consequences of that. Final means final.

Oh, wait, except there really is something beyond the grave. What shall we say of that?
