Opportunities

I am setting the table for breakfast. I announce loudly “Breakfast is ready”. 

Vian sits down at the table and notices that I had left two forks next to his plate of cantaloupe slices.

Vian: Who put two forks?

Me: Oh, I didn’t realize I left two forks. My mistake.

Vian: No, it’s ok. 

Then proceeds to use both his forks to pick up two slices of cantaloupes and starts shoving them in his mouth. I was reminded of the poignant quote “There are no mistakes, only opportunities".
