Have you ever had an opportunity in your life that you were so greatful for? If so did you pass up the opportunity or did you take it? Sometimes great opportunities come our way but we pass them up, maybe due to financial problems or other problems in our lives. I feel like I've came across one of the best opportunities that's been thrown my way. My sister went to this spa party. While she was there she thought of me and thought that I may be interested in being an Independent Spa Consultant. I jumped on the opportunity because I was getting ready to have to look for a full time job again. I deffinately didn't want to do that since I have been home with my daughter for over a year now. She was born almost 3 months early so I didn't get to go back to work as I had orginally planned. I'm just so excited and feel on top of the world. Please tell me about some of your experiences.

You are so luck and happy!
Life is full of so much acid,sweet,bitter,peppery,so How do we treat it? I think we should have a ordinary mood whenever we are happy or in trouble!
At first,we should earn more merits. If we have had all kinds of ability,we aren't afraid of our life.The opportunities will come on when you are ready,it always obliges the man that is so hard to work and learn!!Best wishes to you!

Oh yes, that happened to me. The job that I am currently in, was a god sent!
I was so grateful for it at a time when I needed it most. In fact, I have a very good friend to thank for. He was the one that heard that I was looking for a job. And he wrote a letter of recommendation that got me the job.
I am still thankful each day I wake up, knowing that I am coming in to a good job with good colleagues to work with.
There were also other opportunities that I had to give up. But to know whether they were good or other wise, I would never know. What has passed, remains passed. No point brooding over lost opportunities. Not like they are going to be re-opened to you again. What are the chances of that happening?

There are so many different opportunities in life. Many times we pass it up other times we jump on them. I jump on all the opportunities that I could get my hands on and while I miss out on some things, then other times I get to experience something wonderful.
My favorite has been able to walk up a hill to a giant cross in my area. It was a beautiful sight and I was able to spend time with my boyfriend and grow closer to him.

Oh Yes, I heard many people talk about opportunities that they just let it pass. Yes we regret it sometimes when that opportunity never come back in our lives.
