Ending in Spirit



All things are created
With an end in view
Nothing created without expiration
To create is to intend
Just like a seedling grows with trees
The hen can’t exist outside the egg
Just like no river flows without the ocean

To imagine an end without the end
Is an end in ending
To expire before you inspire
Is to finish before you start
Learn from the seed
It was a tree at the beginning
Just like food is meant for the sustenance
Same with learning meant for a spiring
And relationship for companionship
If everyone is rich
How do we learn survival
If everyone is poor
How do we learn prosperity
Money is never the ultimate
It’s a channel to grow and diminish
If the world is full of sorry
How do we enjoy the ecstasy of joy
If all we have is victory
How do we learn from our mistakes
Only the Maker understand
The intent to create and expire!!
There is always an end in that beginning!!
