In my senior year of high school my Religion teacher gave us all a present - one word that summed us up - mine was serendipitous. I had to look up it - 1. an aptitude for making desirable discoveries by accident. 2. good fortune; luck: the serendipity of getting the first job she applied for. I wasn't sure how this fit me at the time.
But now, many moons later, I have come to understand. Only what I call serendipitous now has nothing to do with luck! But everything to do with following my path and being open to allow the blessings to flow forth!
Yesterday, I received the final edits on My Mom Eats Tofu and when the editor emailed me back these were her exact words...
"I am not sure if you know this, but I am also a vegan :-) and therefore have vested interest in your book."
Serendipitous?
