Second Chances!!!

About 4 years ago, I tried a little Mexican Restaurant in town.  It was new and I thought, what the heck I will give it a try.  My brother picked up my order and brought it back to me.  Well, it was a rather hectic day at the office and by the time I got around to eating my lunch, it was cold and I didn't love it.  So, I made a quick mental note not to return.  Until recently, I had a co-worker tell me that it was one of her favorite restaurants.  Still I held out, until she brought in her lunch and it looked great.  So, I thought why not give it a try?  Which I finally did.  Tried the taquitos and they were in fact delicious!!!  Fresh tomatoes, lettuce and a dob of sour cream.  I had found a new place to eat.  Since the, I have returned several times and had ventured out to try other menu items.
This made me start to wonder how many other things in our life have only given one chance?  I am not talking something as trivial as a restaurant, but what other things and people have we not given a second chance?  Which leads me to my newest challenge/assignment for me.  Re-examine those people and things in my life and take a second chance.  Have any of you ever rediscovered something after giving it a second chance?  I would love to hear about it.
