  • The END counts more than the beginning. Yes of course, it's only he or she that endures to the end or rather it is he or she that holds firm to his or her faith that will be saved at last. Moreover, it's the end of a vision, aspiration or dream that proves whether it's ordinary or extraordinary, true or false. Also, it's he or she that perseveres or persists to the end that can and will leap or reap the reward for hard-work i.e. genuine success. Likewise, it's he or she that eventually reaches or crosses the finish line that emerges a winner in a race. Besides, it's your last thoughts, words and actions that will determine your salvation or damnation on the day of reckoning.
