Is it the end of a beginning or the beginning of an end?

Go ahead and think about it! Every time something comes to an end, something else begins. So is it the end of a beginning or the beginning of an end?





It all started on a boring Monday, under the lazy sun. I dunked my cookies into a warm glass of milk, and my idle mind stormed into a domino effect of questions, all silly and pointless. But one question bothered me the most when I dunked my precious cookies into warm milk, is it the end of the cookies being crunchy, or is it the beginning of the cookies becoming soggy?


I could never really know, and so I pondered over the question for a while; I looked up the internet for the same, and no answer could quench my quest to find the answer. So I turned to some lady luck and asked my girlfriend the same, she looked at me like I was her worst mistake, but she loved me enough to finally answer. The end of my cookies being crunchy and the beginning of them turning soggy happened together; they are simultaneous events. Hence, the end of a beginning is the beginning of another end.


Let me decode that for you; ever heard of the phrase "every action has a consequence"? Well, that pretty much sums up everything. Any action you take has a start and end; that start could be the ending of the previous action, and the end could be the beginning of the consequence. For instance, let's take the simple task of opening the refrigerator's door. You walk to the refrigerator and open its door. The door's opening is the end of the action – walking to the fridge and is the start of the consequence - feeling the outcoming cold waves. Thus, every beginning is an end, and every end is a start.


Alright then, does this blog have anything of value for you to take? Yes! Surprisingly it does.

Little actions have consequences, too; what you must take away from this blog is that everything you start comes to an end, and endings lead to new beginnings, so make sure you start things that have happy endings and fruitful new beginnings.
