Feeling Stuck or Let Down? Here's Why It's Okay to Start Over Again

START OVER!

When you've trusted God and walked His way,

When you've felt His hand lead you day by day,

But your steps now take you another way...

START OVER!

When you've made your plans and they've gone awry,

When you've tried your best and there's no more try,

When you've failed yourself and you don't know why...

START OVER!

When you've told your friends what you plan to do,

When you've trusted them and they didn't come through,

And you're all alone and it's up to you...

START OVER!

When you've failed your kids and they're grown and gone,

When you've done your best but it's turned out wrong,

And now your grandchildren come along...

START OVER!

When you've prayed to God so you'll know His will,

When you've prayed and prayed and you don't know still,

When you want to stop 'cause you've had your fill...

START OVER!

When you think you're finished and want to quit,

When you've bottomed out in life's deepest pit,

When you've tried and tried to get out of it...

START OVER!

When the year has been too long and successes few,

When December comes and you're feeling blue,

God gives a January just for you...

START OVER!

Starting over means "Victories Won,"

Starting over means "A Race Well Run,"

Starting over means "God's Will Done,"

Don't just sit there...

START OVER!

Awesome, Sukanya.

It does feel that most often in life, when everything is gone and you ask 'WHY?', the response is to START OVER.

For:

"Try even if you have a 1% chance, for you at least have hope."

Go on... Failure does not mean you have lost; it just means there is a better way of doing things. Enjoy living.

Awesome Sukanya...

Yup, but failure sure sucks :P

Hi Sunanya,

Such a fantastic poem. Although the author is Anamica, the values are highly inspirational. It rings a bell in my mind about Swami Vivekananda's quote: "Arise; Awake; And stop not till the Goal is Reached."
