In the beginning.....
A sentence is a group of words that expresses a complete thought.
A paragraph is a sentence or a group of interconnected sentences used to express an idea.
Sometimes, a sentence is so significant that it expresses an idea all by itself. The first two sentences in this composition are examples of that capacity.
A composition is a group of ideas that contains a beginning a middle and an ending. Every sentence/idea/composition begins with a word and that word begins with a letter. This letter/word should not be considered the beginning. Likewise the last word/letter should not be considered the end.
A single word is not a complete thought, therefore can not count as a sentence or a paragraph. Everything has to begin somewhere and end somewhere else unless it ends where it began which is a technique a lot of writers use to wrap up a composition that they don't really know how to or want to conclude but realize that if they go back to the beginning, it takes on the feather of Forrest Gump phenomena as a way to end
That last group of sentences was definitely a paragraph and it's the middle of this composition. It even uses the word middle in the beginning of the sentence. Perhaps the last paragraph would be even more powerful if the word "middle" appeared in the middle of the paragraph much as the way that the word end appears at the absolute end of the last paragraph.
I better add another couple of thoughts here so that what I described as the middle of this thing will actually look like the middle and not like just an extension of the beginning which it definitely looked like before I decided to add thesa thoughts to give the whole effort a little more balance. Look, it almost worked. Not quite though. I gotta come up with another idea but I don't want to use too many words on that idea or else the middle part will look more like the end.
How will we know that this thing is reaching the end? We will use the technique that many writers use when they are trying to sum up all of their thoughts and ideas even though they could go on and on forever. They write "in conclusion' like I'm writing right now which should tell you something.
shit
It just dawned on me that a single word can in fact be a paragraph/slash idea if that word can be used as a noun/verb and metaphor simultaneously. Of course, that's just a thought but this summary type sentence makes the thought part of an idea. The last sentence although turning the sentence that preceded it into the middle part
of an idea is nothing more in the end, than a thought as it was
in the beginning
and the end
