All-portunities


"We are all inventors,
each sailing out on a voyage
of discovery,
guided each by a private chart,
of which there is no duplicate.
The world is all gates,
all opportunities."


~Ralph Waldo Emerson

Nice quote. Everyone's living in the same world yet leading unique lives. Our lives are the same yet different.

true words which we sometimes forget

Tkh,
Exactly. We are in this world, but not of it.

Confused,
Until we are reminded again. :D

and what a journey it is...

This image is simply breath-taking. How many human beings relate to the peace and tranquility that resonates from it? Serenity is a priceless experience. You can generate it wherever you are and whatever your conditions. Feelings emerge from your beliefs. You do or feel what you think.

Sarah,
And it keeps getting better with wonderful readers like you. :D

Liara,
At times finding the right image can take just as long as composing, but in the end it is worth it when it compliments the post. I call it the Feng shui of posting.

The photo has an energy that draws one into its essence. When I look at it, I can see myself in that boat sailing along the ocean of life, meeting each experience that awaits me. Can't you?

Sending you peaceful blessings and wishing you a peaceful week ahead. Thanks for your energy, it is priceless.

Excellent quote, and a beautiful picture. Opportunities are there, all we have to do is open the right gates.

Makes me wonder why many of us try so hard to be like someone else.

Eric,
Thanks for being a part of this post. May the gates always open for you.

Jacqueline,
Many people miss opportunities because they divert their attention when it's in front of them.

Thanks for adding value to this stream.

Yes absolutely true. The world is full of possibilities. And not many can see it, let alone seize it.

It's sad that many will let opportunities slip by and live in regret all their lives.

Life is too short! And we need to live it to the fullest each day. Hopefully if I die tomorrow, I won't have any regrets.

That is something I live by each day. :)

Sher,
That's a great motto and a good one to spread to others.

May opportunities abound for you always and each day leave a smile in your heart.
