Chances always favor those who are prepared

 

The door of opportunity won’t open unless you do some pushing. Chances always favor prepared minds. The story happened when I was in high school can help illuminate the true meaning of the proverb.

On hearing the news that one student would be chosen and appointed to be the tour guide of some visiting teachers from Ireland, all of us felt excited. However, what annoyed us was that few of us could speak English fluently because most of us attached little significance to oral English. But our monitor, who practiced her listening and speaking nearly every day, was no exception. She succeeded in grasping the opportunity. Even more excitedly, she was offered a free summer camp to Ireland later.

Contrary to common belief that she was simply luckier, I think it was her preparations in advance that led to her succe ss. This is a lesson I can take from her success.

Recently I came in contact with the true meaning of love. That would have been, Kane, a boy. Kane was the two-year-old son of Jolene, my new neighbor.

At a glance Kane was a sight. He’d been born with hard sticks for legs. And on that morning I witnessed the effect that Kane’s physical shortcomings had on his family. But I also witnessed much more than that.

I saw an extraordinary family that embraced this special child. A family that wouldn’t allow Kane to know he was different. Jolene had constructed a small cart just a few inches off the floor for his son to get around. Using his hands to move about, Kane moved the cart to “go to” any place just as everyone else was able to do. Kane worked that little cart like a master. Kane was a vital focus of the entire family. He was more than just a member of the family; he was the soul. This child was the driver, the motivator, and the founder of much of the interaction.

Much later in my life, I came to realize that God had sent this child to help some of us who just weren’t getting what love was all about. Even with my limited capacity for understanding at the time that Kane was a highly developed spirit with great wisdom.

Kane demanded attention, but not because of his mobility challenges or other apparent shortcomings. In his mind, he had no challenges or shortcomings. The truth is that he received attention because he was alive and real and had so much to offer.

Kane was and still is a lot of warm and powerful energy sent to us all, so we might learn that love surpasses all things. Kane, a fragile yet lovely baby, was here to teach us all an important lesson. And at the age of two he did just that.

A. They were strange because they locked Kane at home.

B. It was respectable for them to start their own business.

C. It was ridiculous for them to make a cart for Kane.

D. They were greatly brave to face all the difficulties.

2.How did Kane “get to” everywhere he wanted to go?

A. By moving his cart with his own hands.

B. By asking his father to lead him ahead with a stick.

C. By asking his grandparents to push hin everywhere.

D. His parents specially employed a babysitter for him.

3.According to the author, God made Kane with disability to help _______.

A. his parents get to know their responsibility

B. his family members know the importance of union

C. people especially the healthy realize what love really means

D. people especially the disabled realize their inner power

4.Kane needed attention because he wanted to show ________.

A. he can challenge his difficulty in moving

B. he had challenges or shortcomings in his life

C. he himself needed to be looked after by others

D. he had the power to prove he was capable too

B. Love is above all things.

C. Many hands make light work.

D. Pure gold fears no fire.
