How do we allow for

Submitted by ihe on Tue, 09/30/2008 - 4:17pm.

How do we allow for serendipity??can we allow something to happen on accident?I think serendipity can bring us satisfaction. (maybe he means that we allow ourselves to be satisfied by the fact that something good has happened?).

Serendipity has played minor roles in my life, becuase usually things don't happen by accident in my opinion. Many time Idon't think"this happened by chance or luck" but rather "this was meant to happen" like many i try to find meaning in why things happen, and there for something that happened by chance would not be by "chance" for me, but more of "it was meant to be".
