If it weren't for our unintended mistakes, some of our projects would not be nearly as succesful and beautiful. Chant this word to yourself next time you make a mistake and you may end up seeing the project take you in a different direction leading to serendipity. Just my own thoughts I wanted to share. :)

A few years back I'd sent my 7 yr old granddaughter some silly little item. Well, she 'lost' it in her messy bedroom. Weeks later she told me she found it in the closet. Her words, " It was Serendipity, Grandma". After explaining to me what that meant she proceeded to spell it.
