Just a Thought.

Beginnings and endings. Is there a difference between the two?

When it comes to things like a book, a movie, an episode or season of your favorite t.v. show…. There’s a definite distinction. There is always a start and finish.

But I’ve been thinking about this all day and in life there are not many beginnings and endings. There is just one of each – birth & death. Everything in between is the story. A relationship might end but it’s also the beginning of new opportunities. The summer has ended – and the new school year began. You might have finished with one chapter of your life but the new one is right there waiting for the end of the preceding chapter.

So if an end is a beginning, and a beginning is an end…. how can the two be different?

I’d like to think that life is a beautiful series of events and emotions.

& even though it’s quite typical to be distraught over the “end”,

we should think of that end as a beginning and hopefully that state of mind can make transitions easier.
