The delightful history behind serendipity suggests it’s not mere luck
January 7, 20265:00 AM ET, Heard on All Things Considered
By Juliana Kim, 2-Minute Listen
In the new year, we can all use some serendipity, right?
Since the word was coined in the 18th century, “serendipity” has been used to describe all kinds of scientific and technological breakthroughs, including penicillin, the microwave oven and Velcro. (More on these below.)
The whimsical term has also been the title of countless poems, songs and books about remarkable coincidences or eureka moments. And let’s not forget that it was the name of the charming 2001 romantic comedy about two strangers — played by John Cusack and Kate Beckinsale — meeting and reuniting during chance encounters.
“Serendipity” — as the Merriam-Webster dictionary defines it — is “the ability to find valuable or agreeable things not sought for” or “luck that takes the form of such finding.”
While the word has often been associated with good fortune or happy accidents, its origin suggests that serendipity goes beyond just happenstance. Some researchers argue that serendipity can be acquired through skill and that opportunities for serendipitous moments occur more frequently than we realize.
In this week’s installment of NPR’s Word of the Week, we dive into the roots of serendipity, its impact throughout history and tips on how we can cultivate it ourselves.
Serendipity’s wayward journey
While serendipity is all about the unexpected, its origins are less mysterious.
Serendipity Plot: Although strangers Sara and Jonathan are both already in relationships, they realize they have genuine chemistry after a chance encounter – but part company soon after. Years later, they each yearn to reunite, despite being destined for the altar. But to give true love a chance, they have to find one another again.

klu9#TIL two of my favourite 90s crime-with-comic-elements films, Miami Blues (1990) w/ #AlecBaldwin & #FredWard, & Grosse Pointe Blank (1997) w/ #JohnCusack & #MinnieDriver, had the same director, #GeorgeArmitage.
George also had a long history w/ #RogerCorman making sexploitation & blaxploitation films in the 70s. & TIL he passed away in Feb 2025.
