About almost every possibility is an opportunity. And every opportunity is a possibility. The typical for example: 1 + 2 = 3 or 2 + 1 = 3...
What is the catch? Perhaps it is back to the will to take a chance. Have a firm grip on the opportunity in hand; not let go of a successful possibility if the opportunity is well used.
Each day has 24 hours; if we set each hour as a milestone then it can be translated to 24 Opportunities. Each would have an unknown amount of possibilities. Possibilities to do what?
Possibilities to accomplish a task, advance or understand it. How often do we regret letting go of an opportunity, how often do we feel bad for not even checking the possibilities?
Might not even be regret; it wasn't in our hands to be lost. Perhaps we didnt even reach out to it. which is the true regret; the result from failure or from missing out an opportunity?
I believe the latter carries more weight.
What am I trying to say? Perhaps that we take lightly the Opportunities that crosses us everyday and with time possibilities keep decreasing. But again, everyday has a new set of Opportunities and possibilities.
So now what? To give it a little deeper thought. I believe that each opportunity is unique and that also each possibility is unique cause each can shape your path of life based on the choices you make.

errr.... :os... speaking of opportunities... how many did you waste writing this post?... or possibilities... how many were there for me to check it?...
to be honest the worst section I had in maths was probabilities... so I guess I'll just be quiet... I agree though... a lot of what you said made sense...
I wasted less then 1 opportunity. The possibility of you checking this post was quite high.
Thanks for your honesty, though I have to admit, I never did well at math as well :p
Since the time is running on, so the opportunities are still there.
Did you ever heard about creating opportunities?!
if you have the opportunity to create it in the first place? :p
there's only two things, take it or leave it...
cuz if you take one opportunity it could open the way to other opportunities... and so on and so forth...
unless it's somethin else ur pointing to :os
again I'll be quiet...lol
NF: As you said times keeps running on, though not backwards. So what am thinking opportunities vanish and new ones appear...
About creating them, can we really create them or is it the fact that it was a possibility for us to create it.
tripletee: that is a valid point, from one another appears. Which means by each opportunity you select the more your path is in that direction instead of the other.
Tripletee you are not getting it!
Atgm, if you would look at your back, & wonder about them, so then you will miss whatever is ahead.
Creating opportunities means you dont wait for the next stop, you walk to the next!
this is simply true, so much hopes i felt reading what you wrote, very optimistic indeed (i see it that way!)
I say , live your life the best you can and don't think about how many opportunities you're missing out on.
Happy New year. ;)
nightface: Walking to the next one, nicely said. And indeed dwelling on the missed ones is pointless.
najah: Exactly, glad you got my point...
Kazablanka: Not much enough though, people kaza is impressed. Now I can rest for a long while...
violet83: So are you saying we expect to get it wrong, so we do?
nabhan: It's not about what is being missed out. It's about what is there to take advantage of.
violet83: Per your description then, if we expect it to go well then it will. So it is all about the expectation if it is a 50/50 case.
