Today Britain mourns the death of their monarch, Queen Elizabeth II. But the loss of the 2nd longest reigning monarch in history, is also a loss for all mankind. Not as a monarch and as a queen of a country, but as a beacon of values, tradition, impeccable upbringing, unpretentiousness and class. A life where vulgarity, pretetiousness, bad manners and lies have no place. An exemplary life of all religion´s teachings and codes of ethics of respect, of dignity and of decency, we thrive to pass on for generations. Qualities that sadly seem to have lost their priority in today´s world, overrun by vulgarity and dishonesty that is often applauded and promoted.
We look back at some of the most defining moments of Her Majesty, whose legacy will live on and hopefully inspire reflection and inspire generations to come across the globe.
