Or can we invite serendipity in our lives? Everything cannot be planned or forecast. In fact, the best gifts of Universe come when we least expect them, or rather when we align our vibration with the vibration of Universe through positive thinking inside (the mind) and positive people outside (around us). And then begins the magic in our lives, a magic called "Serendipity" Here are some stories to inspire you:- Your "Magical" Time Starts Now “Ehh, what’s happening to me? Every time I think of someone, either I get a phone call or a message or some other communication from them. It seems as if they are trying to tell me, “I am thinking of you too.” There is too much serendipity and coincidence happening in my life“, she told him. And then she smiled softly and continued, “What have I do...

Thank You, Thank You, Thank You; The Universe Loves Gratitude

"I have noticed that the Universe loves gratitude. The more grateful you are, the more goodies you get. When I say ‘goodies,’ I don’t mean only material things.

We find it very easy to find faults, how our parents could have done a better job, how God could have given us better opportunities and circumstances, how the boss could have been nicer, how our siblings could have had less rivalry and so on.
