In 1557 in Venice, Michele Tramezzino wrote and published the fairytale Peregrinaggio, a story about the three young sons of the king of Serendippo,.

In fact, Serendip is the Persian name for Sri Lanka (Ceylon). The story became known through the English version of The Three Princes of Serendip. It is from this version that Horace Walpole stole and coined the term serendipity, when in a letter to a friend in 1754, he wrote of a \"stupidfairy tale\" in which, during their travels, three princes discovered a lost camel and other things they were not looking for thanks to chance and sagacity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.archeorunning.com\/en\/2020\/10\/25\/rundipity-state-of-mind\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"RunDipity (apre in una nuova scheda)\">RunDipity<\/a>The main requirements of RunDipity, like Serendipity, are calm, inner silence, intuition, and wisdom, while while being aware of but not fixated on the end goal,  It calls for a predisposition to accept the fact that in every discovery, as indeed in every aspect of real life, there must be some inherent element of randomness, the discovery of unexpected beauty, even in the race. I started out just like this: running to a goal; but then I found that it was not only this that led me to continue, but really the whole ensemble of energies and positive feelings that running brought me. <\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>La volta scorsa vi ho parlato della felicit\u00e0 che mi d\u00e0 la corsa, un momento tutto mio dove lascio fuori ogni cosa.
