I must share the joy of this Serendipity Day!!! I went out to my local market to purchase some leeks and ginger beer. There was a table set up with some lovely ladies who called out to me. They asked if I would like a $10 gift card? I asked them what was required. They gave me a slip and told me to go to the different departments (produce, whole grains, protein and dairy) and provided me with a slip that had each department listed. They explained after visiting all the areas listed to take the slip to the pharmacy department and I would be given a gift card. WOHOO. Well I went to produce and was given a sliced pear with a delicious dip that consisted of yogurt, peanut butter and cinnamon with the recipe. It might sound strange, but it was delicious, we chatted about eating fruits and veggies in season to reduce food costs, it was very informative and enjoyable. I also shared a recipe using yogurt to prepare a super moist roasted chicken and expressed my gratitude. I moved on to whole grains and learned even more again expressing my gratitude. Next was the meat department in which I learned about grass fed beef being much than corn fed beef. I concluded with the dairy department of course there was more gratitude. I am a confessed Foodie so I was in heaven as I went through the market. At the pharmacy department I was given a large tote bag with information on making healthy choices along with the gift card. As I headed toward the checkout I couldn't help but be filled with grateful and joy at such an awesome surprise, such amazing Serendipity :)
Guess what? There is more... that same afternoon. my cousin who I love dearly called and told me she was coming by to bring me a gift. I told her she is the gift and that's okay but she came by anyway and brought me a lovely fragrance Black by Kenneth Cole, I had never tried it before, it is just heavenly and in beautiful packaging to boot. I was so very grateful not only for her, her thoughtfulness, but the wonderful unexpected gift. I gave her a shower curtain I had picked up for her, that matches her bathroom perfectly. She laughed and said "you are always giving me something, you can't give me something, I just gave you something" to which we both laughed. She asked me to accompany her to do some shopping. We always have a great time together, time spent is filled with joy and lots of laughter so of course I did. One of the stores went to had one of my all time favorite things-lamb. I love lamb, chops, roast, ground whatever. It was at the best price I have ever seen in my life so very affordable I had to get it. We had such a wonderful time together, totally unexpected, the Blessing of Serendipity.

I agree with Jason in so much that it can be a good practice to consider life in this body has a limited time to figure it all out.However consider this, as you get beyond 60 and 70 years old, you will likely have a different perspective and understand and accept what at a young age seems unacceptable, so it's healthy to ponder mortality and if you reach 80 or 90 you will have no problem accepting shedding this body or going on vacation until you show up again to go for another ride.

In response to ♡ ˚ AmazingFaithTrustBelief's post:I found that by serendipity, it was a scene in a moviee from 1999. That scene has energy but the movie wasn't rated above 6.
