A Small Tribute to Elizabeth Taylor that Includes Lucy

As everyone already knows, the beautiful Elizabeth Taylor passed away on Wednesday morning and was laid to rest Thursday afternoon.  She went out of this life in pretty much the same way she lived it, with Grace, Style and Tastefulness.

While most of us look to older people as our driving force to life, Elizabeth Taylor was one our parents constantly warned us about, especially if you lived in a Christian home; they didn't want us to look up to her.  She was married countless times, had several affairs, became a drinker, a smoker, a party girl, and her life was filled with drama.

But I look past all that, we are human, we all make many mistakes in our life, we learn from them and move on.  Who's to say she wasn't one with God and asked for forgiveness long ago?  We don't know, but He is the one who will decide her fate when the time comes.  Until then, we should all live our lives as we see fit, and if this includes God, or not, that is up to you.

In a tribute to the iconic legend, I came across a video this morning that brought me so much laughter, and thought I would share. The clip is from "Here's Lucy," and pretty much what happens... Lucy gets Liz's ring stuck on her finger.  Richard Burton tries to have it removed, and when he can't, he drags Lucy along with him.  He takes her to a reception that Liz has to show up to later that evening, and everyone is expecting to see the famous ring...
