My favorite word is "serendipity." It fits the mischievous nature of a happy accident. Sometimes, God just wants to play with us and she drops accidents in our way just to see what we'll do with them. Paying attention to the world around us helps us break down that which is meaningful.

Did you ever see the movie Dogma? Your comment about the mischievous nature of God reminded me of how God was portrayed in the film

I saw Dogma so many years ago I can't tell you anything about it. I do recall it being a worthwhile curious film.
