At times, a sense of direction and inspiration comes from some unexpected people from nowhere...what do you call it?! Co-incidence?

Saw this old couple running a small restaurant inside an apartment in Bangalore.
Me - What motivates you to work at this age?
76 year old guy - Necessity....
Me - Hmmm...
Him - Was wealthy till 3 years back. Lost crores of rupees in my business...So, there is a necessity to survive....That's why this small restaurant business.
Me (looking at his 71 year old wife) - It must have been difficult for both of you to go through this...
Him - Very difficult! But, will it help if I sit and cry thinking about it? So, decided to do what we can, with whatever little money we have. She (looking at his wife) has been a part of my happy days.So she decided to be part of my sad days as well...I am lucky...you know!
Me (Awestruck)......

What do you call it? Co-incidence??
No...
I would call it Destiny!
They were destined to teach me something about something!
A salute to such teachers and their thoughts!
A salute to such learners and their learning!
Happy Teachers' day, my fellow beings!
