Default Poem "Starting Over"

Here is a poem someone wrote and it gives me alot of inspiration. So I thought I would share it with everyone.

I cross stitch and want to put this in a sampler and put it on my wall so I can see it everyday.

START OVER
Author Unknown

If you've started out in pursuit of your goal and you've really tried with your heart and soul
But somehow things got out of control
START OVER

When you've tried your best to do what you should and you thought this time that surely you would
But once again,you didn't do good--
START OVER

Whe you've worked so hard to follow TOPS way and you fought to win a victory each day
But one more time you went astray
START OVER

When you've tried so hard to yourself be true and do the things you know you should do
But once again you failed to come through
START OVER

When the road to success seemed much too long and each temptation was oh so strong
And once again you gave in to wrong
START OVER

When you've told your friends what you'd planned to do and trusted them to help you through
But soon discovered it's up to you
START OVER

When you know you must be physically fit
But your hope seems gone and you're stuck in a pit
That's not the time for you to quit
START OVER

When the week seems long and successes few and at weigh-in time you're feeling blue
Remember tomorrow is just for you
START OVER

To start again means a victory's been won
And starting over again means a race well-run
And starting over again proves it can be done
So don't just sit there
START OVER
