Serendipity

        
         
          Today, I felt low. Supply teaching really slowed down this week.  I applied for several full time jobs and received no response.  The temperature is dropping and I haven't been motivated to take the dogs on a long walk.  I even missed a night of masters swimming.  Is it the change of seasons, lack of light, or what?
          I wondered what I could write about today.  What would be inspirational, positive, uplifting?  Without really looking, I found this message in my files:
 

Do what you can with what you have where you are. 

         Such a simple, helpful, and hopeful passage, wrapped in a happy collage of colours, shapes, and textures.  It spoke to me as I hope it will speak to you.  No matter what the circumstance, we can still do something.  We can take action.  We can make a difference. 
         According to Webster's Dictionary, serendipity is when someone accidentally finds something good. Today I found something good, not totally by accident, but just when I needed it.  I am thankful. 
         
Until tomorrow,
