Some Opps Disappear

A buddy was working with someone
on an opportunity.
They worked long and hard
on it.
It didn’t work out.

My buddy had worked on opps before.
He knew that some didn’t work.
He accepted that this one didn’t.
He moved onto the next one.

His partner had hinged her hopes and dreams
on this opportunity.
She was bitter and angry
when it failed.
That happens.
Unfortunately she EXPRESSED
these negative emotions.

My buddy will never offer
another opportunity
to her again.

Opportunities come
and opportunities go.
If you want more opportunities to come,
don’t make too big a fuss
when they go.
