Examples: 1.Today I got in a car accident, but I now value life more. 2. Today, I stubbed my toe, but looked down and found my wife's wedding ring we thought was lost. This concept is called the `blank` effect. Or, I was struck by the `blank` of this event that made me see the reality of life in a different way. I'm thinking `unforeseen benefit`, or `unexpected surprise` but they are just both too boring, and I would like one word that captures it. I would like something that more accurately captures the perspective-shift aspect of the event.
