Beginnings don't always look like what we imagine beginnings to be. Sometimes when we begin it can look and feel like coming to an end. Beginnings can be sad, gloomy, tired, falling apart, broken, decaying, and dying. When we begin it can by unskillful, confusing, messy, stressful, and chaotic. A beginning can also be a depression, heavy and low, and it can be a waning, an ebb, and a draining, a shedding, or a wilting. Share about a time when you had what felt like an unlikely beginning in love.
