I went to a Chinese restaurant with some friends earlier tonight and of course the meal ended with fortune cookies. I managed to get a cookie that contained the message above. I realize that most messages in fortune cookies are generalized enough so they can apply to most situations. However this one got me thinking of how surprises make life worth living, at least for me. Just think how boring things would be if everything was predictable. For one thing, it would take all the fun out of getting fortune cookies-and let's face it, what's a Chinese take-out meal without fortune cookies? (A sadly-lacking-in- fortune-cookies- Chinese take-out!)
