All Good Things Must Come to an End

So, I should be sleeping. I've had about three hours of sleep in the past 48 hours. But I'm still psyched from going to the ISI Honors Colloquium.

Psyched may be the wrong word. My adrenaline is still pumping, but I'm actually sad. I enjoyed my time so much, and I am not particularly looking forward to cleaning my room and doing normal stuff again. I told myself that all good things must come to an end, and then I started thinking about the truth or untruth of that pessimistic phrase.

First, Heaven will not end. The statement is obviously not unqualifiedly true. But on earth does it hold? I guess so.

I just decided that I am too tired to continue this "conversation." Suffice it to say that I think good things end while good continues. (Think Sam Gamgee and the star.)

Goodnight.
