Sometimes it’s those flukes of luck that change the world

Everyone thinks it is greatness, but so much is being in the right place at the right time

Realizing that you are in that moment for a reason

Engaging in what needs to be done to create your new normal

Now sometimes it is pure happenstance

Dumb luck if you will

It can be such a blessing

Perhaps it was more than that, though

It was a break waiting for you to come along to happen

That you were, for that moment in time, the chosen one

You just need to accept the honor

Serendipity and Dogma (a 100 word story)

You look at reality as it is set before you.  Before your eyes lay all of the possibilities of your life, splayed out in haphazard lines.  Those lines representing choices and serendipity all connected by a sauce that is you.  As you stare at all this you begin to question your own existence.  Is that me, or am I that?  Where does life go from here?  Is there even a here amongst all those possibilities, or are you just here by your master’s wishes?  Oh, then you remember, you are a dog, those are spaghetti scraps, and life is delicious.
