Circles and Cycles

I talk of things being circular. What goes around comes around, again and then again. Even when you finish the book you start again. It's pretty much the same thing. The situations are familiar but you take something with you from your last read. Insight. Foreknowlege. Knowing the end helps you to reflect on the path. The journey. The hidden themes jump out at you. The fifth time your read page five is fresh. The best books are like that. Each time you read them is new even while being the same. It's still circles. Cyclonic.

This is the end. The end of this story. The end of this cycle.
