Opportunity vs. Privilege

As they say, opportunity knocks at your door only once. The way the opportunity is viewed, I guess, depends on the attitude of the person whose door is knocked. A person coming from a rich background views the opportunity as just his/her privilege and perhaps does not perceive its importance. For a person from a poor background, every opportunity is a golden one. He/she will make the best use of whatever comes his/her way. Perhaps this is the difference between those who succeed in life and those who fall by the wayside.
