One of the most common quote we have listened while growing up is that “Every beginning has an end”. A journey is not a journey until you reach its final destination. A life without death is incomplete and incomprehensible. No matter how much sadness or happiness is in your life, at some point it has to end. It is a universal law. Just like in Quran it is being said by Allah Almighty, “To every rise there is a fall”.

It is important to understand the context of the title, because as you may have seen and followed what is happening on twitter for the past 2 days with hashtags saying, “Thank you Lionel Messi”.

For those who do not know, Lionel Messi is the most popular footballer around the world;recently decided to leave his boyhood dream club Fc Barcelona after playing for them for almost 18 years. This decision was on hold for a very long time considering the player’s tension with the Barcelona board members, and with their ideology of running the operations of Football Club Barcelona. But Messi’s patience finally gave up when Barcelona was knocked out in the champions league by Bayern Munich in a humiliating defeat of 2–8. This was the club’s worst defeat in almost 80 years.

Now the question is way why there is a rackus on social media about this particular issue. Why people from all over the world are getting emotional over this issue? It can described with relation between Messi and Football Club Barcelona. Under normal circumstance, there relationship was like that of a husband and wife living a happily married life. In the past the rumours around Messi leaving Barcelona were considered as a joke. His loyalty, commitment and dedication towards his club was unprecedented. As far as playing for another club, no one could even imagine him wearing the jersey the another football club.

No imagined that for such a beautiful beginning there would be a heartbreaking end. It was believed that the player of his caliber and talent will retire at Fc Barcelona, ending one of the most beautiful and fairytale stories in a fruitful way. But life does not create ideal circumstances for all of us. What we have imagined for yourself, is not true in most of the cases. To every beginning there is an end is an absolutely true philosophy. But whether that end will be beautiful or not, it is not in our hands. We can just try our best and pray to Allah that provide us with things which are best for us.
