What this quote means

This phrase evokes a temporal paradox: the end of an era coincides with the beginning of another. It speaks to those pivotal moments when we think we are losing everything, when in fact a new phase is opening. It resonates with those going through transitions – breakups, grief, life changes – and struggling to see the opportunity behind the loss. It invites a more nuanced view of time, where endings are never absolute but thresholds.

How to apply it daily

Identify a recent ending in your life and look for what has begun in its place, jotting down new possibilities.
