This word was encounter in the article “Walk with Me” by David L. Ulin which states “This was urban walking after a fashion, repetitive and serendipitous at once”. This word was located on the fourth page, first paragraph, third sentence.

When I came across this word I was skeptical on what it meant. Just the fact that it was along word and I was unsure of what it had meant. Since I wasn’t clear still on what it meant I read other definitions that would help me understand it better . From what I got was that serendipitous meant a discovery but within a positive way or as an accident. Sometimes it can also mean that finding something can be beneficial to that person.
