Recently I have felt that my fortune-cookies have been mocking my unemployment. I mean, when I repeatedly get things like, "The greatest happiness comes from the greatest activity," or "Opportunities multiply as they are seized, they die when neglected,", or even "The attitude within is more important than the circumstances without," I start feeling slightly defensive.

But after today's fortune cookie, all is forgiven. It asked me, very simply and cheerfully, "Aren't you glad you just had a great meal?"

Yes, little fortune cookie. Yes, I am. :-)
