When chances come a knocking

When chances come a knocking As often they are bound to do Why is it that so often we are Too afraid or uncertain to let them in? The universe offers many gifts Through out our lives and at times We are so consumed by inner turmoil That we fail to see what is offered to us. We become accustomed to getting the short end of the stick so to speak. If we step out of our norm we are hesitant And insecure what will people think of us? Do you realise that it is what you think About most that you attract into your life? If you are absorbed in thoughts of why me We are blind to the opportunities that knock. Many times we wish we could turn back the clock Or wish for an opportunity to knock again It has been said time and tide wait for no man And it is only with a leap of faith that we achieve So why not take that chance now? If you don’t you will never know what Might have happened if you did. But be cautious do not act with too Much haste – look after what you Have and love before you Throw caution to the wind.
