The Courage to Begin Again

 

...and if you find that you're not, I hope you have the courage to start all over again.

- The Curious Case of Benjamin Button

Life's a journey, it's a winding road

Sometimes we stumble, sometimes we grow

We strive for success, we chase our dreams

But sometimes it's not as easy as it seems

We meet new people, we hear their tales

We see the world through different veils

We learn to love, we learn to grieve

We find new reasons to believe

Yet sometimes we feel lost and unsure

Our path is unclear, our heart's obscure

We wonder if we're on the right track

Or if we should turn back

But in those moments, we must be strong

We must be willing to admit we're wrong

And find the courage to start anew

To see the journey through

For life is a journey, full of surprises

We must be willing to take the rises

And when we stumble, when we fall

We must rise again, standing tall

So let us embrace the journey ahead

With all its twists and turns, joys and dread

For sometimes the only way forward, you see

Is to take a step back, and start anew, with glee.
