Indeed. That is why it is called a cycle. Rocks do not stay as they are but are continually forced to change as a result of changes in their environment. It may take a relatively short time period or a very long time to change from one form into the next -- even eons -- but eventually it happens. If we could watch the vastness of geological time speeded up to seconds and minutes, we would see large mountains rising and disappearing and even continents whirling and splitting and rejoining each other like mere clouds on a windy day.

Does the rock cycle have a beginning or end?

yes it has a beginning but it has a end too because it starts all over again but it keeps on going No it doesn't have an ending or a beginning because it is a series or repeating steps. Even if the rock dies out, it'll change to a new type of rocks, and then repeats over and over again. No ending, no beginning, that's why it's call 'cycle.'
