The cycle of life is paradoxically both chaotic and predictable. Our day-to-day lives might be full of confusion, hurt, and frustration about the current state of the world, but on a deeper level, it’s easy to step back and notice how history tends to repeat itself. When writer and poet Ronnell Beaty noticed the cyclical nature of life and human habits, he brought up a thought-provoking question: what if we knew how things would end from the start?
In his most recent collection What If You Knew The End From The Beginning? My Embryonic Poetry, Beaty shares 10 poems about his reflections on gratitude, life and the human condition. Read on to get a few sneak peeks from this book and find out where to pick up your copy today.

Keep Moving Forward
This is a new day done
And the dark is only night
After the setting of the sun
So I say

Because you have already won
This is your own life moving forward
And you have just begun
