Chances. How many do you get? How many do you want? You can take them. Or you can steal them. But who do you steal them from?
Only so many are given. It's advised not to push the limits. Although there are all too many gimics. Of chances I mean. How do you know when you get one? How do you know when you loose one? Often you're told, often they're sold.
They're traded from person to person. Given, taken, stolen, awakened. Sometimes people don't want to give them. Because maybe you took too many. Maybe you just took them without asking. People don't like that, When you take things without asking. It makes them feel used. A feeling all too common I see.
If you take a chance. You can choose the size. It's best advised, you measure it. Because from time to time, People don't. They let someone else choose for them. You don’t want the wrong size Not everyone knows your size That’s why you’re supposed to choose for yourself You can't wear clothes that are too big. You'll look foolish. That's why you return them. But you can't return chances. There are no receipts. No repeats. Only advances, To places that lead to more chances, If you’re lucky.
Chances are not redos. So don't dare think they are. Or you'll look foolish in your oversize suit. During your life long commute. People always remember the ones you take. And especially the ones you steal. So don't trip on your pride. Because soon it'll be the only thing you’ve got.
