“ALL GOOD THINGS MUST COME TO AN END” – There is an end to everything, to good things as well. The proverb dates back to about 1374 (Chaucer). First attested in the United States around 1680. The word ‘good’ was added much later. ‘Everything has an end’ and ‘Everything comes to an end’ are variants of the proverb.

Your blog reminded me of Psalm 119:96. I am proud of you that you stimulate thought, yet more importantly, are a help and hope to many by your mentorship, friendship, and leadership example.
Thanks George. And, it’s great to hear from you.
In cases like this perhaps we have an opportunity to ask not only what Thomas Jefferson might do, but also what Jesus might do.
That makes a terrific cross reference for a focus on doing what is right, and less so, what we think we want.
With my Shockers I’ve tried to develop building blocks for the future. I’m deeply proud of them all.
