Who came to your house?King ? or beggar?

Lets give it a personality.
Opportunity is an emperor.

Opportunity knocks the door many times,

His aura can be noticed only by some wise people. He is actually the emperor.He disguises himself like a popper, to test your mettle and charecter.He would be able to judge your seriousness, by coming without any noise.
The moment he learns that you have no regards for small poeple, he decides you really dont deserve to entertain him.

He could give you another chance, to prove your charecter, but if you still dont understand that it was an opportunity given to you to prove yourself, you stand no chance.You will be englufed by his magnanimity.

I have to confess about many poeple, who are so lazy to go open the door. No body wants to move their limbs to reach out to something that comes to them. We have become so lazy that, we have started saying come in, keeping the door open.

If the Prince himself had given an intimation that he was going to visit our house, we would
stand next to the door awaiting his arrival. The point is how much importance you attach to something, matters. We attach no importance to a popper.We care not, even if he was dying of hunger. or do we?

Now what? Are we gonna sit down on our couches all day and warm them? or are we going to lift our bums and open the door when some one knocks?

'Thattungal... Thirakapadum' - A well said proverb in Tamil.. Forget the ppl whom u saw sitting lazy wasting opportunities that knock them, consider those greats who instead of even standing and greeting the emperor on the door, buckled their torn boots, went out in the cold with ragged attire and made sure that they fought the guard at the entrance just to say a word to the emperor, 'I don't need u to defend me. I am strong in heart and can defend myself' Now thats an attitude u used to have and we persist to remain that way. Remember.... The emperor has always been in u. To add to the good deed, u can also drag the lazy oaf with u to the emperor and make him greet the emperor (Which most ppl don't understand and it does hurt. But its ur heart which smiles) Long, but a short message in the heart
