We went to Yorkshire last week and one day we went to an aquarium in Scarborough. We took our cameras and took photos of the fish, the seals that they rescued there and two otters... Anyway, I was trying to take some pictures in a particular tank, but the fish were not playing ball and kept swimming away as I tried to get a photo.
But then this made me think. Sometimes we chase that elusive "fish". "Just one more time and it will work out next time," and sometimes it does and that's good, but other times we hold out for something unrealistic and forget about other things happening all round us because we have our attention on only the one thing, whether it's realistic or not.
Sometimes it's the timing that's wrong and the "fish" comes round again.
We just have to keep an eye open for the opportunities, to not close ourselves off too much. It maybe the "fish" that got away that leads to better things or to a special moment later.
