a new day each day

every so often, i am hit with despair... with each experience, my confidence weakens. i hate the apparent uncertainties that loom ever so near, they cloud my vision, my dreams... such opaqueness drowns all lights of hope... and as dawn breaks the new day, i am to carry on living as if yesterday's half-fought battle -- little advanced or pushed 100 feet backwards -- didn't matter and today, a new beginning, as if none of that had happened...

New Every Morning

Every morning is a fresh beginning,
Listen my soul to the glad refrain.
And, spite of old sorrows
And older sinning,
Troubles forecasted
And possible pain,
Take heart with the day and begin again.

thank you all... i need to learn to be more positive and more 'scientifically autistic-inclined' (i.e. less cynical and critical...) but it's easier said than done.
