As you grow up, you learn which opportunities to take advantage of and which ones to let pass you by. Sometimes it isn't always clear; others, its plain as day. And you begin to notice its not often that things you wish for come to fruition on their own accord. But when they do, you must take hold of them - even if it means flying by their coattail for a while.

New opportunity is exciting.

Life is unexpected.

Together, what a thrill!

Still searching for the perfect thing, but she just might be well on her way to finding it.
