OPPORTUNITIES.

Yesterday I read a post about one of our celebrated journalists in the country if not in the continent.She did a very different course in University  but now she is a journalist.One of the comments caught my eyes, it was,"this lady was given the opportunity to do this by someone,maybe there is someone out there who can do it better than her if given the opportunity and training she has been given." This left me thinking;

Maybe the fastest runner in the world is not the fastest.Maybe the fastest runner in the world was the man who had the opportunity to run,and with the best trainers available.Maybe the fastest runner has never been tested.He is probably  in  a slum somewhere or the most hidden part of this world,and he could leave this world and die ,without having known that he was the fastest man.

Maybe the fastest swimmer in the world does not even know how to swim or if he knows he is swimming in lakes searching for a meal.Yet we are thinking that the fastest swimmer in the world is the one we see on TV.

Maybe the best speakers spoke with greater voices but they never had the opportunity.Never underestimate the power of opportunity.

There is nothing as painful as seeing someone do  something that you know if given the opportunity to do it ,you can do better than them.Many people are searching for opportunities but cannot get,slowly by slowly some of them are becoming irrelevant in their field of study. Never take lightly a man or woman who gives you even the slightest opportunity to be who you are.Remember whoever has the key,opens the door.
