It seems premature to assert they all had a beginning when we've never observed matter and energy do anything but transform...except for virtual particles, which seem to be completely spontaneous, not very supportive of the conclusion you want to reach. Evidence points to all the matter and energy in the universe once having been in a very hot, dense state. We do not know yet what preceded that hot dense state, or even if 'preceded' is meaningful considering time started in our cosmos when that hot dense point started expanding. All the matter and energy in the universe having always existed in some form or another is a distinct possibility that we have not eliminated yet, but they have definitely always existed in our cosmos and since that's from when time began, you have to go 'before time' to find a time when all the matter and the universe even possibly might not have existed.
Don't trust your intuitions when it comes to cosmology and quantum physics. Our brain did not evolve to function on those levels.
