A New Beginning 

Daybreak
Sunrise
Sunset
Another daybreak

a new beginning…

A new day
A new week 
A new month
A new year

a new beginning…

Summer
Fall
Winter
Spring

a new beginning…

I like him
He likes me
We like each other
I think I’m in love

a new beginning…

After a few dates
After many months
After a proposal
Then comes marriage

a new beginning…

First comes intercourse
Second comes pregnancy 
Third comes labour
Finally my baby 

a new beginning…

he’s sitting
he’s standing
he’s crawling 
he’s walking 

Every story has an end but every end is a new beginning. 

The above clearly shows that life works in a cycle and the situation or position we may be in is definitely temporary. 

When we have a new task or a challenge at our hands or we are caught up in a terrible situation, we tend to forget that it’s a phase and it will pass. We worry and stumble even get depressed atimes forgetting there’s always light at the end of the tunnel. 

I remember my Facebook status during my undergrad for a long time was “uni is a just a phase in my life”. I put it there to remind myself that I was gonna graduate soon, move on in life and all the stress from a particular math course was gonna be behind me. Yeah, me and math aren’t friends.

So keep your head up high and face every new obstacle with perseverance. For verily, with every hardship comes ease(Q 94:6) which is a new beginning.
