(In honor of Abbey Road on the River, we’re featuring Beatles lyrics in our closing comments this week):
“Sounds of laughter shades of life are ringing, Through my open ears inciting and inviting me. Limitless undying love which shines around me like a million suns, and calls me on and on across the universe.”
