Only the Beginning

I came across this quote from the end of The Chronicles of Narnia by C.S. Lewis. I have really enjoyed re-reading this quote over the last few days, so I thought I would share:

"but the things that began to happen after that were so great and beautiful that I cannot write them. And for us this is the end of all the stories, and we can most truly say that they all lived happily ever after. But for them it was only the beginning of the real story. All their life in this world and all their adventures in Narnia had only been the cover and title page: now at last they were beginning Chapter One of the Great Story, which no one on earth has read: which goes on forever: in which every chapter is better than the one before."

Love this quote! It puts all of the "stuff" in our daily lives in perspective and reminds us of the perfect eternal life we have ahead of us. =-)
