Chances

"Opportunity knocks but once". Dad believes that heaven is fair so we get not one but two chances. If you miss the first time, you've another chance but if you miss a second time, you're a fool. Maybe Dad's right. Life's full of choices and opportunities. If you miss a chance, you can try again. Sometimes though, we only get what they call the "once in a lifetime opportunity". How many times did opportunities come to you and you turn your head away for a moment only to have them slip right through your fingers?

Those who believe that they only get to live once will say "To hell with it. I only got one life and I've to make full use of it. Seize the chance!" I believe that this is just one of the many lives/carnations I'm going through so I don't think in the way of "One life; One opportunity". Rather, it is the love for adventure that beckons me. I'd willingly risk my life for adventure. Excitement and fun give meaning to a life.
