Story, Beginning, Ending

Prompt: Every story has an ending. Every ending has a beginning. As a writer, do you agree with this statement?

Yes. A movie ends but our lives go on. Like Pretty In Pink, Moly went back with Blane. She probably went to college and he did, too. They probably married later on. One chapter of your story ends. Graduate from high school, get married, get a career, have kids and your kids have kids and get a life. I have been watching Young and the Restless for years. Nikki and Victor got married, have kids, have grandkids, got divorced and married other people. Other characters follow suit. A book ends. As long as the characters didn't die, they still have a life. Like Nancy Drew. She has solved over 200 mysteries? Our grandparents went through a depression, wars, marriages, kids, problems and their life didn't end until they passed on. The Bible. The world will end someday and we who follow Jesus get a new beginning in Heaven. One story ends and another begins. Books, movies, real life. We have an ending to one aspect of our life and then get another beginning to the next stage of our life. I am thankful that we do.
