Not really, that's a very human view of the Universe and quantum physics doesn't really support it.
Why do we think something has to have a beginning? Because otherwise where does it come from?
Why do we think something must come from somewhere? Because we know that cause and effect exists. For every effect (the existence), there must be a cause (the creator).
Why do we think cause and effect exists? Because otherwise it would be possible to receive a message before it was sent.
Why is this a problem? Because information cannot travel faster than the speed of light for the reasons I said earlier - it has to exist in space.
What happens if we were able to travel backwards in time, could we then receive a message before it is sent? Yes but this would just be reversing the problem. It would still need to be created in the past on your personal timeline for you to deliver it for your past self.
So you see that cause and effect, the idea that something must be created before it is received, is actually a function of time itself.
If you throw time out of the window, you throw cause and effect out of the window with it. The Big Bang didn't need a beginning cause because it wasn't an event in time, it was an event that created spacetime
I am not talking about time and receiving messages before they are sent, i cant get my head around physical matter, something cannot have always have been there, things don't just appear
