“Luck is not chance, it’s toil; fortune’s expensive smile is earned.”  Emily Dickinson

This quote reminds me of when I just staring out  in my life’s work.  I remember when my future boss asked me during an interview what it was that I was seeking in the position I was applying for.  My answer began with “If given the chance…”  I can tell you, after many years of hard work, that chance had nothing to do with luck.  When we are given a chance at something in life, it is up to us to take hold of it and turn it into what we hope for. 

Peace,

Felecia

    Luck will take you to the front door, how you get in is up to you.
