Life = Opportunity
.

Life is an opportunity given
to satisfy the hunger and thirst of the soul.

Bow of Saki, by Hazrat Inayat Khan

Commentary by Pir-o-Murshid Inayat Khan:  
And what is life? Life is an opportunity.
To the optimistic person the opportunity is a promise,
and for the pessimistic person this opportunity is lost.
It is not that the Creator makes man lose it,
but it is man who withdraws himself from the possibility
of seizing the opportunity.
