Simplified Meaning:

Sometimes opportunities come our way without us looking for them. This happened for the person in the quote. Their mother encouraged them to try something new when this chance showed up unexpectedly. Imagine a young person who didn't plan to be in a school play but was asked to join because someone else dropped out. Their parent suggested they give it a try to see if they might enjoy it. This advice can be useful for anyone. When unexpected opportunities come, trying them out can lead to discovering new interests or skills. Instead of saying no immediately, giving it a shot might open doors to surprising and positive experiences.
