Day 138: Happy Accidents

Have you ever been in the middle of something and realized you've been doing it wrong but it is too late to turn it around and fix it?  So then you have to figure out a workable solution?  This could apply to cooking, baking, an organizational task, a work task, parenting, make up application, etc.  When the workable solution works out and even takes it a step further and improved the original thing I call it a happy accident because suddenly those nerves that it would be awful turn to butterflies of happiness that 1) it worked and 2) it's even better!  I love happy accidents and actually I am grateful for them. I think we all need happy accidents to help us expand our boxes that we can get stuck in.  Some of my happy accidents have led me to taking greater risks with cooking, etc.  I'm grateful for the happy accidents that give me reward from a "mistake" and help me to grow in other ways.  Have you had a happy accident lately that made you grateful?
