I have a love-hate relationship with fortune cookies. I finding them alternately inspiring and annoying. Sometimes I resent them. At other times I think they're funny. Perhaps fortunes are like horoscopes are in the West, and most people believe them when they promise something desired.
I don't buy them, but a Chinese friend keeps giving them to me. This will be the first one I've opened in more than a year. I think I was a little afraid I'd get one that read "Abandon Hope All Ye . . . " or something like that.
"The aim is useless without the way." Not as bad as I imagined. I know the aim, but what is the way? Have to think about it.
