n-dip-i-tee]
n-dip-i-tee] –noun

2.

3.
the most delightfully frustrating movie I've ever seen.
Yes, this may be a little delayed-- the John Cusak and Kate Beckinsale film came out in 2001. But it's the sort of movie that appeals to the most blindly faithful of optimists-- and in consequence is undoubtedly and most assuredly one of the best movies I've seen.
There's something about the concept of accidents leading to good fortune that brings up a smile-- who hasn't made a mistake, and then had it lead to something remarkable-- something even better than what was originally intended?
There's a reason this word exists in the English language.
Things happen, and things go astray-- but regardless, things work out.
All we need is a little confidence, a little good humour, and some spontaneity-- some trust in the world to be there for us.
So I know what my new favourite word is.
Do you?
