Que Sera, Sera?: Paying Tribute - upon Doris Day's Death-Day - to a song whose tune and lyrics have ever and always been, somehow or other, a part of my life's journey

When I was just a little [boy]
I asked my Mother, what would I be...

...would I be [handsome!], would I be [well-to-do]...[?]

-and here's what she - didn't - say to me:

"Que sera, sera -whatever will be, will be
-the future's not ours to see...
que sera, sera;
what will be, will be."

And unfortunately - or perhaps luckily! (for Yours Truly)
the remainder never applied...

And aside from that, Ms Day's fatalistic maxim itself is distinctly unChristian -

there's no doubt whatsoever about it...

yet as someone who lived a life that was thoroughly 'out there',
ever and only in the glare of the all too public eye...
(from twelve years prior to my dear Mum's own birth -
in that selfsame land of America)...
...and whose private life evidently mirrored - or didn't -
her multi-variegated film/theatrical/'musical' career...

I can only feel for her, much as Elton John's classic hit
about 'Norma Jean' (or Marilyn Monroe), i.e. 'Candle in the Wind';
later reworked for another famous woman, Princess Diana Spencer,
c/o 'England's Rose', following her untimely, tragic death in 1997,

...speaks so very eloquently upon...
