Opportunity
If you’re Buttons, the Prince or the house servant Cinders’, When life closes doors it then opens up windows, and when faced with life choices only you can decide, if a Princess or Prince hides in you deep inside. It’s not contacts or money or courses you take, that make you the person who you yourself make. You can blame old boys networks, your colour or gender, but decisions still separate ‘also-rans’ from contenders. So before you start whining that life isn’t fair, or pinning your future on astrology or prayer, remember the world will not meet your demands, and what you will achieve is in only your hands.
