Serendipity

ser·en·dip·i·ty NOUN 1. The faculty of making fortunate discoveries by accident. 2. The fact or occurrence of such discoveries. 3. An instance of making such a discovery.

I stopped by Borders on my way home today and came across a book, The Monk Who Sold His Ferrari. It tells the story of Julian Mantle, a lawyer forced to confront the spiritual crisis of his out-of-balance life after suffering a massive heart attack. It looks like an interesting read; maybe it'll give me some inspiration to chuck this rat race and live like a human being again. Yeah, I can almost remember living like that.

"Watchin' Dan Rather do the news, he looks like he's making a hostage tape. They should have guys in ski masks and AK-47s just standing off to the side..."
