To start 2010, consider the words of Edward Sill about "Opportunity":

"This I beheld or dreamed it in a dream.
There spread a cloud of dust across a plain,
And underneath the cloud, or in it,
A furious battle raged; swords shocked upon swords and shields.
A prince's banner wavered then staggered backward,
Hemmed by foes.

A craven coward hung along the battle's edge and thought,
"Had I a sword of keener steel, that blue blade the king's son bears,
But this blunt thing," he snapped; and throwing it from his hand,
He loweringly crept away and left the field.

Then came the king's son, wounded, sore bested and weaponless,
And saw the broken sword, lying hilt buried in the dry and trodden sand,
And ran; and snatched it up.
And with battle shout lifted afresh, he hued his enemy down,
And saved a great cause that heroic day.


We all hear lots of reasons why something can't be done. Ignore them. Just go make it happen. Do it.
