A Prayer to Begin Again

In the face of 
failure,
regret,
uncertainty 
may I have 
the courage to 
begin again. 

In the grip of
worry,
fear, 
insecurity
may I find 
the fortitude to
begin again. 

In the arms of
victory,
success,
vindication
may I learn 
the humility to
begin again. 

In the heart of
confidence,
delight,
satisfaction
may I gain
the conviction to
begin again. 

In the midst of
beginnings,
middles,
ends
may I discover
the wisdom to
begin again.
