Serendipity

Posted at — Feb 14, 2021

Serendipity is beautiful.

Time and time again I engage with life and come face to face with its serendipity.

Surprise and volatility are the names of this game.

With experience, I’ve understood life to be incredibly volatile. It seems the only constant in the universe is that it remains ever-changing.

Today, a routine walk turned into an encounter with an old friend.

Yesterday, it was an encounter with a never-seen-before, year long, pandemic.

Tomorrow, it might be death.

The insight is that life is unpredictable.

We all know this to be true; it’s wisdom that’s passed down from generation to generation. It appears the wisdom isn’t digested until we experience it ourselves.

Now, I wonder: what other wisdom have I not fully digested?
