44.serendipity


Today was one of those days when things strangly fall in place and happy turns are found along the way. I slept few hours in the day and felt trully rested. Had a great walk and talk with my son. Got the earth and planted the herbs. My camera is working again, thanks to my husband. I started cleaning around listening to some gipsy music (if I should move around and dance through the work with the smile on my face I need my heart to be emersed with the right energy, that is) and a good friend dropped by and gave me a hand. Which gave me a moment of time to listen to one lecture of a dear teacher of mine, which in it´s turn I discovered was on just right in time because of opening my e-mail to do the last piece of my work-related stuff in the day. So, really, day can best be described by the word serendipity (happy accident, pleasant surprise).

And me being me I went to look up the word, just to round the day and discovered that the word came to use at the end of 18th century from a Persian tale - Three Princes of Serendip (relating apparently to Sri Lanka). Look it up if you will. I´ve also read a beautiful thought of Rumi shared by an friend and remembered another by Tagore. Sometimes there is much that fits in a day and gifts are many. For all of them I am thankful and hope to keep the memory of it to pave my trust and pose for days I may forget it. Thank you.
