Full Idea
Not every end is the goal; the end of a melody is not its goal; and yet: as long as the melody has not reached its end, it also hasn't reached its goal. A parable.
Gist of Idea
The end need not be the goal, as in the playing of a melody (and yet it must be completed)

A Reaction
A nice message for Aristotle, that there is no simple separation of ends and means.
