How many of you agree with this saying?
People will always be influenced by the past. Decisions are always made upon accumulated experience.
What makes us so sure that the new ending isn't connected to the old past?
Since a brand new start is the result of an unhappy past, how different can the new ending really be from the old one? Maybe the new ending, is the old one in disguise.
There is no brand new life and brand new ending lah. There's only one and it ends in death.

And who know, death can be a new begining ya
agree.
Make sense. Strongly agree..
Somehow...the analogy is funny...
Imagine when you're young...you knock on a wall...and you hurt your head...
And then 10 years later...you knock on another wall and then you tell yourself no it won't hurt? But its a freaking wall for crying out loud!
What makes you think that it won't hurt a second time? The way you knock your head?
dont agree la.. i feel like laughing when i see this. Correction.. start the new beginning today doesnt meant u will have good ending dude.. this is real world
it's true man. but it's just an optimistic statement of encouragement.
Hmm... Steven Covey taught us to begin with an end in mind.
But if we keep thinking about alternative endings, we will get nowhere.
Case-in-point: Job hopping.
you doing essay question huh?

Why need I go back (in time) to start a new beginning, when I can start one today ?
I'll cut short the story, I met a old friend back in school days. He now lead a life in australia, melbourne as investor banker during my visit to relative home over there.
In the past he done lots of mistake and wrong choices, till that incident happened, he was almost ruined by the choice he made. We couldn't helped him... but now he's a changed man with a good career, a stable life and beautiful wife to company him. he were the one who told me this word statement.
He couldn't changed the past but he could made new choice by starting all over again from now. I'm happy for his new changes.

I understand your story, but is it of any 'agony' to you? Jealousy perhaps..?
kinda yea
For every beginning, its the start of an ending.
For every ending, its the start of a new beginning.
I got my own life, I'm quite satisfied with it. everyone came here to search for help, but in the end they're the one that able to help or solve the problem on their own.
Yes you can't change the past but now you're given a chance to make new choice to create a brand new future which you really desire for. There's no such need to bundle oneself to the past mistake, everyone has a chance to start all over again.
When there's a hope, there's a will. If you saw despair at the end of the road, maybe at around the corner there's a hope.
It takes more than understanding of this piece of wisdom.
Courage :-
1) the courage to face the reality of past
2) the courage to face the challenge of future
Discipline :-
blah blah blah...
an ending always signify the beginning of something and the beginning of something will always result in an ending.

kinda agree...
what's done, cannot be undone.
but we can always start on something new so as to try to rectify the situation. =)
