begin again

You took the right road and ended in the wrong place.
Begin again.
You reached the top of a mountain only to find yourself at the bottom of another.
Begin again.
You dotted every 'i' and forgot to cross your 't's.
Begin again.
You were at the wrong place at the wrong time and your life changed forever.
Begin again.
You loved hard and lost big.
Begin again.
You won the race but they gave 'first place' to someone else.
Begin again.
You followed your North Star and ended up at the South Pole.
Begin again.
