Endings & Beginnings & Endings

There is no ending without a beginning. That endings and beginnings end and begin right up next to each other, proves that nothing ever ends without something else beginning, or vice verse...Allowing something to naturally run its course, and end without forcing a beginning, is against our breeding, somehow, in our culture. But empty spaces and forms can be so exciting. It goes against our training to let go, but the excitement of allowing an item to end and/or begin all by itself, without forcing it to do one or the other, has all the glow of the anticipation and excitement of a wrapped Christmas present. The new and the old will still rub shoulders, in the end, or is that the beginning...?!
