Day 186 of wisdom

“Not knowing when the dawn will come, I open every door. ”

Emily Dickinson

Life does not present anything to any man on a platter of gold, one must work very hard to achieve whatever he wants from life, and take advantages of the privileges that may be presented to him in any way they come. There are no opportunities anywhere, but opportunities arises everywhere, it is left to us to unveil opportunities, and make use of them the best way we can.

In recognizing opportunities we need to be wise, and open minded, we must think beyond what we see, and look towards what can be, opportunities are not always in what exists, but in what we can bring into existence. Francis Bacon once said, “A wise man will make more opportunities than he finds.” opportunities may not always be available everywhere we look, but we can create an opportunity where there seem not to be any.

Sometimes, the things that pulls us down are an opportunity to rise beyond our lows, they are supposed to be stepping stones to climb to higher levels. In the words of Henry Ford, “Failure is only the opportunity more intelligently to begin again.” when we fail, we have the opportunity to start again on a cleaner, and a better slate, being wiser, and more prepared for the task, having formally been through that path.

When obstacles come our path, we must realize that sometimes opportunities comes as obstacles so they can become stepping stones, to where we should, or ought to be. Where people see difficulties, we must look out for the opportunities therein. Opportunities often come disguised as difficulties, but when we face it prepared, and willing, we will make it through, and we will come out better than we went into that situation.
