Does infinity have starting point?

im not a genius scientist or anything like that but it seems simple to me,if we say ad infinitum ,we are saying that after somthing begins it goes on and and on.so some things have a begining and then continue on into infinity,or what we concieve as infinity.such as the birth,death ,birth cycle,as far back as we know past time, it has been so and continues. but then you have the infinity that has no witness of a begining nor has anyone witnessed its end therefore its concluded that it Always has been ,always will be.symbolicaly infinity is the figure 8 lying on its side.no begining,no end.but at the same time there are beginings and ends that take place within that infinity. like a life cycle,when he is born, a person jumps onto the infinite road of life.that is his begining. and death is his end ,so the finite joins the infinite and then even in death has he not been a part of the infinite ?I was wrong its not simple to explain.
