There used to be a good Chinese food restaurant near my work, and my co-workers and I would go there for lunch on Fridays. The restaurant is still there, but the ownership has changed and the quality has gone way down since. So, instead we’ll often go to the Spring Roll Restaurant. Excellent food and good prices (I recommend the Special # 1, which unfortunately doesn’t show up on their online menu), but that’s not the point of this posting!
The old place used to give fortune cookies after the meal, and I collected a number of them. I was cleaning up my office last week, and decided to throw out the fortunes, but I wanted to record them. Here they are, in no specific order:
- Focus in on the color yellow tomorrow for good luck!
- You will run into an old friend soon.
- Tomorrow your friend or partner will tell you some exciting news.
- The next full moon brings an enchanting evening.
- Happiness surrounds your events this week.
- Others admire your assertiveness.
- You have a great appreciation for beautiful things.
- Get ready to do something daring.
- Enough is as good as a feast.
- You will obtain your goal if you maintain your course.
- You will receive a big compliment in front of others.
- A job well begun is half done.
- It’s the journey and not the destination that counts.
- You constantly struggle for self improvement — and it shows.
- A simple kindness today will bring you great reward.
Here’s a fun (and a little spicy) game — add “in bed” to the end of any fortune you get. It puts them in a whole different light!
