I like beginnings, too. But I also like same oles (most of the time) because it's comforting knowing. Just knowing. The only thing I don't like are has beens because that sounds so pathetic

I like consistency too. It's also very comfortable to me. I've never thought about "has beens." I'll have to give that some thought now and see if there's anything I'd think about like that. In my life it's always been endings. Abrupt. Unexpected. Finite. Hasbeens sounds like something that would fade.

Now I'm wracking my brain for a "has been!"
