A Look at Ch 4 In Myth and Reality

"When, as sometimes happens, a lad dies from the effect of the operation, he is buried secretly in the forest, and his sorrowing mother is told that the monster has a pig's stomach as well as a human stomach, and that unfortunately her son slipped into the wrong stomach, from which it was impossible to extricate."

When we think of the end, every person has a different take on what that word means.  Is it a word of something final or is it a word of beginnings? When looking at some cultures, death is a new beginning and a step to a future world. In other cultures or religious beliefs, the end is the end.  Forming ideas on what the end means comes from you own experiences and the stories and people that have an influence on you.  So looking at what the end means to you, is it you ending or your beginning?
