Walk the walk and stumble upon
Other opportunities seen only on
Roads seldom traveled and start
Looking under each rock to inquire
Deeply into what others have missed.

Outward appearances only deceive,
For beneath the surface lies more

Potential than first appears.
Opportunities cloak from bystanders,
Sitting in the shadows to remain
Still until discovered by the curious
In search of uncommon stories.
Broad assumptions fail against
Illumination of gifted exceptions,
Leaving it up to luck and fate
Itself to reveal inspiring treasures;
Truly lavishing minds who seek
Intriguing possibilities above all else,
Every story starts with a first step,
Second look, and a third time’s the charm.
