Life as a puzzle …
There are times when routines become derailed due to a wide variety of realities. It seems as though one’s proverbial life-puzzle has been moved around — or taken apart and put back into the box! 
Said times can be blessings in disguise!
Consider this mode of thinking:
Instead of being more organized or controlling in your approach, allow for serendipity. Happy accidents happen when you look side to side or up, not always forward. Don’t stop planning. Rather step out of the tunnel. Put yourself in situations that allow for the unexpected. Life is situationally driven. Learning happens in context. Be ready when opportunities arise. The more space you’ve cleared in your life for something new, the more right things will happen. More or less. ~Marcia Conner
Serendipity. Happy coincidences — moments in time when you (although planning and moving forward) simply allow the flow of your life to take you through to the next step.
Two significant roles for me (mom and careerist) are in this “mode” … Space was cleared for something new and “right things” have happened. It has been sweet …
