Chances

This week I am thankful for chances.

Have you ever done something that you were really nervous to do?  There was a 50/50 chance that the outcome would not be in your favor, but you knew that you if you let the opportunity pass and didn’t take advantage of it you would eventually come to regret not making that move.  You knew that if things did end up working in your favor, it would be so amazing and you’d be so thankful that you sucked it up and took the chance.

Recently, I experienced a situation like this.  I tend to be a shy person, but I put myself out there.  I took a chance. I took matters into my own hands.  I’m still in the process of trying to figure out whether or not it will be worth it, but I do know one thing – I am glad I took the chance.  I am thankful that I had a chance to do something that I never would have done.  I’m thankful that I am given thousands of chances.  I have been given the ability to take chances that could possibly change the course of my life for the better, especially at this point in my life. Some chances I will know the outcome of soon, some I won’t find out the outcome for years to come.  Either way, I am thankful.
