About This Quote

At the time, I didn’t have a great grasp on the true meaning of this quote. Sure, everything was ending, but it wasn’t yet ending. It is a thought that takes a lot of time to really sink in. When you think of the ending, you think of eternal darkness and death – things that can’t be changed or controlled.

While it is true that everything is ending – I am going to die – nothing is ending forever. In fact, as I write this now, things are not ending at all. In fact, there is still more to come.
