One Chance

A Poem

You will have one chance to dance with the perfect partner, to music that could be the soundtrack for your life.
Take it.
Perfect strangers will tap your shoulder to tell you you are beautiful.

You will have one chance to learn something completely new and which you were born to do.
Take it.
You will feel like you are flying.

You will have one chance to tell the truth to the one person who needs to hear it most.
Take it.
The truth will allow you both to breathe, again.

You will have one chance to say yes to people, experiences, and connections that cross your path.
But you will have a chance, again and again, to say no to the things that aren’t good for you.
Take it.
