The Thing About Endings...

A poet I once loved said, "The truth about endings is that they do not come without a counterpart."

Every time something ends, something else begins.

Remember how it felt like life had ended when the COVID-19 lockdown started? The world paused. Streets emptied. Everything stopped.

But that ending opened doors — to remote work, digital skills, side hustles, and new ways of thinking. Life, as we knew it, ended. And then, something else began.

That’s the beauty of endings: they often come disguised as loss, but they quietly prepare room for what’s next. It may not feel better at first — but it often is.

Ever survived something so heartbreaking it felt like your whole world had collapsed? And you wondered where strength would come from to rebuild?

Well, look at you now. You may not be exactly the same, but you’re still here.

You survived. And something different, maybe even beautiful, rose from the wreckage.

Dearest reader, in the words of Hanson, "Life is riddled with endings, and change, and insufferable pain.", so of course life will happen, things would go south and the end you dread will come neigh, but you’ll survive. Remember every end leads to a beginning!
