Opportunity Is a Gift
Opportunity presents itself as a gift
and may appear as a messenger-
perhaps, "knocking" on your door.
Sometimes, it is a hope that
this possibility emerges, and we wait
patiently for this special courier to
knock, but it never does.
However, hope is not enough when
wishing for an opportunity to knock.
A fine prospect that appears by itself
is a rare option indeed, and a
fickle one- only knocking randomly.
A good opportunity is consistently
attracted to outstandingly painted
doors- those showing that the true
potential of the receiver behind it,
is ready to embrace it and use it well.
Build that door- make it strong;
stand behind it, ready and worthy-
and opportunity will surely knock.
