Forced oppertunitues

I think this is the most powerful piece of writing I have ever written.

As Humans we so often avoid chance. 

We dodge all fear and we do not take opportunities, 

mostly because we don't have to do these things, or so we think, 

to live. 

Yet, 

every night, 

you will close your eyes, never knowing if you will open them again. 

But you still do it, 

you do it because you must, to live.

You have come to live with that fear, 

now, 

why not the rest?

I know this isn't really Poetry, but i was unsure what to class it as and wanted to share.

Well written and thought provoking! I don't think many really think about the chances they take daily, so being scared to take other chances seems silly now. Thanks for sharing!
