A New Opportunity
December 16, 2015
Everyday feels like a new one,
another chance to make your life better.
You don’t know how to feel because
you never experienced a pain as bad as this.
You’ve never been through such a life-changing
moment before and you don’t know how to react.
You want to tell someone,
tell them that you’re feeling out of place.
That moment when everything was altered
and you became a different person.
You have another chance,
another chance to evolve.
This is your second opportunity.
You take it and you adapt,
you change for the better.

This is really good it really made me think because I could use this message for my life.
I believe in second chances, I believe everyone has the opportunity to change. Change can be a good thing, opportunities appear every now and again. Never take opportunities for granted, take a chance with them.
