    "Fortuitous Chances: Embracing Life's Surprises"

    Fortuitousness, a whimsical term
    Evoking wonder in life’s constant churn
    As if fate could sprout from random acts
    A paradox that cements the facts

    In the complexity of daily life
    Lie serendipitous moments rife
    With opportunities for destiny
    To unfold its pages of mystery

    A stranger’s kind gesture, a wrong turn
    Altering life’s trajectory, we learn
    That in these fleeting moments we see
    The extraordinary in ordinary

    For such happenings are a vibrant prize
    An invitation to life’s surprise
    Guiding us towards the unknown
    Where we may make a place our own

    Let us celebrate fortuitous chance
    Embracing life’s spontaneous dance
    For in the chaos, we will find
    A design that leaves us breathless and aligned.

    • This is absolutely beautiful!!! I love it! I love how you ended it. It was so powerful and so wise. “For in the chaos, we will find
      A design that leaves us breathless and aligned.” This is so true. Thank you for sharing! <3 Lauren

      • I believe this too. Life can be so unpredictable and can hit you with problems that make you think it’s impossible to get through. My favorite line in this poem by far is ” we see the extraordinary in the ordinary” well said indeed.
