Serendipity, fate and providence

Tonight I met a former boyfriend's wife. I did not expect to meet her, she happened to be at the same party as I. She was kind, warm and funny. It was an interesting surprise.

As I drove home I thought about many things, but one of the things that I wanted to bring up here is the idea of chance meeting, serendipity, fate or providence playing a role in our lives. Perhaps in how we met our significant other, or got the perfect job, or found the perfect home, or avoided being in the wrong place at the wrong time, etc.

I invite all of you to share your stories of fate, destiny, serendipity, happy accidents, bizarre coincidence and/or acts of providence. I would really love to read them.
