Beginnings = Ends

Beginnings happen all the time. We all have them. Beginning of a new year. Beginning a class. Beginning a paper. Beginning the day. Beginning to run. Beginning a game. Beginning a blog.

Beginnings.
Do they start something only? Or could they mark the end of something? To start something, that means something happened before hand that had to stop, in order to start the new thing. What was before it? When a new year begins, the old one has ended. To begin a class, summer, free time, or something that filled time was replaced with the class. Papers take over the research prep. Running ends whatever mode of transportation or movement was before it. Beginning a game ends the warm-ups and preparations.

Beginning a blog marks the end of what? Summer? Vacation? Free time? Packing? Unpacking? Praying? No. Nope. Not really. Non. Nein. No.

So what then, does it end?




Silence.

Silence in lack of communicating. Silence in living in a spread-out world. Silence in unable to share bits and pieces of life with those who I care about and who care about me.








What does it begin? Sharing.

That's what this blog is about. Sharing bits and pieces of this life God is giving to me. Sharing what God has done and is doing. Sharing His story through my story.
