Serendipity

Serendipity is defined as an unexpected wonderful event in life. Sometimes serendipity is referred to as finding a needle in a haystack. I like to think that no matter what happens in life that we can find positive aspects of it. Sometimes even if a life situation is stressful, we can get a good laugh out of it or find something positive. We need to learn to let our minds shift to gratitude and see that things happen for a reason. Our daily interactions and chance meetings with people write our life script. It is ultimately up to us to decide how we will perceive our encounters. Right at this moment I am sitting next to my wonderful unexpected friend and loyal companion. Her name is Laney. Six years ago by chance I walked into a pet store just for something to do and walked out with Laney. A life event which has certainly brought serendipity to my life. There is never a dull moment with her and certainly lots of laughs. I will admit at times it has been hard to find serendipity in other aspects of my life, but somehow I have found the needle in the haystack. And, believe me when I found the needle it was certainly a moment to remember. I hope everyone can find serendipity, because fairy tales do come true.
