Grief and sadness are incredibly powerful emotions—incredibly powerful. They can unite people though at times of discord and bring people together. It's happening right now at this moment in time as people are expressing their sadness and their grief for Her Majesty the Queen, and, as Sam Rowlands identified, in her life, the Queen had an unparalleled ability to unite people, at all times not just at times of terrible suffering. To unite people is perhaps the most important duty that anyone in authority can fulfil, and nobody has done it better than the Queen. The people of our country, the Commonwealth and beyond have lost a Queen who was the rock of stability in our often troubled existence, but to live in hearts we leave behind is not to die, and so, Her Majesty the Queen, her goodness and her kindness will go on living in hearts around the globe.
