Opportunity


He appeared from nowhere.

“Always look for opportunities”, he said. “They’re everywhere.”

“How did you get here”, I asked.

He looked up and smiled “When one door closes, another opens.”

Then he disappeared.

    If someone like that popped up out of nowhere, I'd be looking for the door he came out of.

    Thanks for linking up! Don't forget to come back to vote!

    Between the picture and the image of him popping in and out, I get this image of the apes and obelisk in 2001 only with a poofing deity.
