Fortune Cookies

[/.]

I freakin' love Panda Express, I can't get enough of their orange chicken. It's delicious. And they give you a fortune cookie with every meal, so eventually I got the idea to start collecting the fortunes. Each time I got Panda Express from that point, I would put the fortune from the fortune cookie in a box. Here is my fortune as told by Panda Express, over the course of a few years and in no particular order:

"Your desire to discover new frontiers will lead you far."
"Many opportunities are open to you, seek them out"
"The best mirror is often a good friend."
"Your life will be peaceful and fulfilling." (lol yeah right)
"Your personality is fueled by the fascination you feel for life."
"You are a person of imaginative, yet honest intentions."
"Next summer, you will dance to a different beat"
"Share your happiness with others today."
"You will touch the hearts of many."
"You will take over a large sum of money."
"Quality counts and you've got it."
"A good position and comfortable salary will be yours."
"Visit a park, enjoy what nature has to offer"
"Smile, a frown keeps others away"
"You will step on the soil of many countries"
"You have an accurate and professional mind"
"You will be involved in many humanitarian projects"
"Your most memorable dream will come true"
"Fortune smiles upon you at this time"
"Fortune truly helps those who are of good judgment"
"Your kindness will lead you to success"
"The sun will shine through your heart and warm your soul"
"Executive ability is prominent in your makeup"

"If you look in the right places, you can find good offerings"
"You are exactly where you're supposed to be"
"Love first, then everything will follow"
"A personal mystery will be solved with a smile"

I am writing this mostly out of boredom, but also to reflect on the wisdom that only Panda Express could realize, with their delicious orange chicken recipe, etc... I'm just kidding, fortune cookies are BS. But there's some uplifting stuff in there, and I remember certain ones were weirdly applicable. I'm glad I kept them.

Do you like getting fortune cookies? Because I wish that kind of thing was everywhere, even at like a steakhouse, or KFC. Just random advice and assumptions written on paper and stuffed in food. It's great.
