Izabel,
I love the word serendipity, and your definition of it. I can't call what is happening in my business serendipity, though, because I have definitely been seeking.
I have seen many times the quote from someone who said "Luck is where preparation meets opportunity." So I guess in this case one would have to call it luck, lol. I also often hear 'you make your own luck', and that too I would agree with in this case.
But in many ways, the preparation was of a spiritual nature, in that rather than struggling for it, I learned to open my mind and heart to recognize opportunity when I saw it. What's so wonderful about that is that anyone can do it.
I have lived over half a century in the belief that I was a Vulcan (anyone here a Trekkie?) -- i.e. a completely logical person, not at all driven by or even concerned with emotion.
What I've learned in the last two years is that if logic tells you that you can't do something because of lack of something else (usually money), it is a self-fulfilling prophecy. When I started to open my mind and think of the possibility of 'luck' coming to me, it did.
If I, believing myself to be a completely logical person, can do it, the majority of folks out there who are more in tune with their emotions than I was can certainly learn to choose those thoughts and emotions that attract the good. Choosing, as you have Izabel, to think of and feel love and gratitude, attracts the highest good there is
I'm speaking now to others who might be reading this thread, because most of the people who have posted are already members of what I'm going to recommend. For a more consistently focused discussion and practice in this principle, join Linda Miller's forum, Spiritual Entrepreneur Today-Law of Attraction.
