If you missed an opportunity doesn't fill the eyes with tears;

One day I was talking to a group of youth and we were discussing the role of parents in helping youth how to utilize different types of opportunities in their life; we started the discussion with the quotation “Winning horse does not know why it runs the race. It runs because of beats & pains” but to us 

everything in life, including success is about making choices.

We realized during the discussion that life and the World are going very fast if we want to touch the foot of success we  also have to go very fast otherwise we will never be able to touch the foot of success. And the good thing God is waiting somewhere above to give us His grace and send His love in whatever our cross, whatever our pain but God always sends a rainbow after the rain.

It is possible to miss an opportunity if we sit  back and wait for the need to come to us. We have to go after it. Otherwise we will end up shedding tears. Tears tell us that there is a problem, hence a signal  of our need for compassion from others. Tears  gives us the opportunity to connect with others and receive comfort; it is a sign of earthly path is blocked all around, when we are provoked on every side.

When everybody accuses “you” of being wrong, and all your environment seems to revolt against you, “If you missed an opportunity doesn't fill the eyes with tears;”  then this is the time you should shed a few drops of tears before God;

Tears are signs of guiltness. There is something that you want badly in life but you don’t have. Guilt arises due to your focus on what you have not done so far to get the object of your desire

Whether your guilt will help you or break you, will depend upon where you put your focus on. You can either focus on what you have lost, what you have done wrong, or, you can shift your focus on doing something towards the associated desire. If something is causing you a lot of guilt, you have to make a commitment to work towards the desired goal attached to this guilt. That desire, is demanding fulfillment.

One scholar once wrote that “the reality is that people who do well in life are not usually ‘lucky’… nor or they necessarily “smarter” than we are; they just made the decision to follow a different path rather than just accept the status quo. Unfortunately life is not based on a singular decision, but a series of daily choices that will in turn define your actions…. but they will be worth it in the end! Success is attainable for anybody who is willing to work towards it – it's all about making choices”.

It is true that every day opportunities are available to us. How do we make sure that we don't miss any? The first step is to be open minded and listen to your personal call. Opportunities can come to us through many different avenues and in various forms.When an opportunity is presented to you, keep an open mind and explore the benefits. Trust your feelings if it will lead you to your goal?

Therefore we should keep in mind that each opportunity has its own unique qualities, benefits, and level of results we can't change the past but we can alter your future in any way you want. And if you use your opportunity very well there is no need of shedding tears at the end. The Bible reminds us that It has been often and truthfully said, that if there could be regrets in heaven, those regrets would be, that we have wasted so many opportunities of honoring Christ on earth, opportunities which will then be gone forever.
