Opportunities Are Everywhere

Opportunities are everywhere. It’s up to me to find (or create) them and make things happen.

Duff here. I have found this to be true many times over. I personally create many opportunities every day. There’s always a favorable circumstance for me to be the Winning Dog I am and perhaps score a pat on the head or a scratch under my chin. I had a great chance to create a fortuitous opening the other day . . . and I took it.

There is a cute little boy who lives across the way from me. He has wanted to be friends with me for some time now. But I was cautious for in my Puppy Days a child about his size chased me. Frankly, it scared the wits out of me for that Boy wouldn’t stop his teasing. And with my Memory, I didn’t know the difference between my former problem and this Young “˜Un. Last week, though, he was out and about. I went right up to him and gave him my infamous Loving Licks. He was pleased and so was I. It wasn’t until later his mom told my mom the little fellow had just eaten a cheeseburger. The fragrance was still on his hands and his breath. Could have been an added impetus, but I had fun and he did, too. We lived unstuck.

How about you? Do you create those opportunities in your life for fun, frivolity and friendship? Do you extend yourself a bit? Make things happen? I say: Go for it. Life is too short to miss out on an adventure. Or a connection. Or even some Loving Licks. Live unstuck. #UnstuckLiving #opportunities #friendship
