1 at the start of THE FIVE PEOPLE YOU MEET IN HEAVEN, Albom says that "all endings are also beginnings." In general, what does this mean? How does it relate to this story in particular?
2 Share something in your life that has begun as another thing ended, and the evens that followed?
In the beginning of Eddie's story, Albom said that "all endings are also beginnings". I think that means our life is likely a cycle. Sometimes we thought we finished one thing, but after we finished the first thing, we need to do the second thing which relate to the first thing.
Albom uses flashback to write Eddie's story. Because Eddie was killed to save a girl, he go to heaven. And in heaven, he meet five important people in his life. When we read a story, we are very interesting in the end of the story, but in this book, Albom tell us the the end first. Perhaps, reader will feel more excited about the content of story.
For example, maybe it is sound like a joke, but it is a really story. Chinese high school is like a purgatory. Students need get up very early, and sleep very late. Perhaps, students need to study 10 hours per day. As we all know, most of Chinese students are good at math. However, good math mark is not because students have interest in math, but because Chinese students in high school are asked to do a lot of practice. In high school, I really hate math class. After I graduated from high school, I thought how nice a day I do not need to learn math every day in university. The dream is beautiful but the reality is cruel. In university, I really do not need to learn high school math, but I need to learn advanced mathematics. I am mad.
