After my sushi-fest, this was the fortune that arrived at my table:
La oportunidad toca a su puerta una sola vez. Este alerta.
(Opportunity knocks only once. Be alert.)
So I've been trying to stay alert, keeping a keen eye open for that opportunity.
Since receiving that fortune, I've turned down an invitation to join some men in the basement of the "Internet cafe," an offer of a ride in the back of a pick-up truck through a deserted ex-hacienda, and the chance to donate money on-line to a stranger, even though the title of the email affirmed that God had chosen me for that very task.
I hope that none of these were the opportunity to which the fortune was referring.
Maybe the knocks will be louder in Puerto Vallarta (or maybe I'll go back fo a new fortune tonight. After all, mango and avocado together...)
Stay tuned: San Pavo
