Dad had a wooden plaque that sat comfortably on the wall in our living room. 

It had "TAKE ADVANTAGE OF EVERY OPPORTUNITY YOU'VE GOT" written on it with bright colours and beautiful flowers.

Whoever walks into our living room will definitely see it because it was bold and big.

Dad loved that plaque so much it was obvious in the way he constantly talked about it and about the different ways life shows up daily. One thing he always emphasised on is the need to be prepared for the blessings that we desire, grab each opportunity with both hand and be smart enough to know what to do at every point in time.

It reminds me today that life itself is an opportunity and each day comes with its blessings and opportunities. Each day come's with many blessings tied to it and you have to be mentally and physically prepared for each day. Each is uniquely different from the other.

The beautiful life we all desire lies in the many opportunities that life throws at us each day. 

Its up to us to be sensitive enough to know when the right opportunity comes and be bold enough to do the right thing to build ,create and redesign the life we yearn for.
