is this the beginning?

i wonder if we have new beginnings, really. can't we really just call this the next step. can't we just realize that that might in fact be a wonderful thing. we aren't simply beginning NOW - it has come to this. and i like that phrase, "so, it's come to this." it is a phrase that feels like it might be followed by something big. and that's the power of this nonbeginning.

SO - this is not a beginning. it has come to this. there are many things to do, and maybe a few things should be said too. we'll see about that.

shall we begin?
