Count your blessings, they say. I say, count your serendipities! Have you ever experienced a serendipity? A coincidence or a happy unexpected experience that changed your life for the better.
One of my most favourite serendipities was when a few years back, I was working on a custom wedding invitation project for a client, and while searching for some project related information on Google, I stumbled on a marketplace where I discovered I could sell my designs. I opened a shop there and ever since then it changed my life for the better.
It’s easy to forget these little pleasant surprises, especially if it doesn’t happen every day. But reminding oneself of those times when something special like that happened is a great way to express and experience gratitude for it and leave the door open for more serendipities like that.
