What we call the beginning is often the end
And to make an end is to make a beginning.
The end is where we start from.

It is our part to seek,
His to grant what we ask;
ours to make a beginning,
His to bring it to completion;
ours to offer what we can,
His to finish what we cannot.
The world, and man, attest that they contain within themselves neither their first principle nor their final end, but rather that they participate in Being itself, which alone is without origin or end.
We shall not cease from exploring,
And the end of our exploring
Will be to arrive where we started
And know the place for the first time.
Empty-handed I entered the world
Barefoot I leave it.
My coming, my going—
Two simple happenings
That got entangled.
