text: explain what serendipity means to you.?   for me, serendipity is something that comes into my life just when i seem to need it.  it could be a person, a piece of information, a "sign" that tells me i'm making the right decision.  for instance, when we bought a previous home, we knew we would get it because my wife was pregnant and the cross street was "concepcion" (conception).  another time, the house we made an offer on was on solana and, when we had dinner at chili's that night, they had "solano steak" on the menu.  we got the house.  do i really believe in "signs" from some divinity? no. i just believe that these events are constantly happening but we only register them when we are ready to receive them.  that doesn't dimish the effect of serendipity because it makes life fun and interesting.
