Profound

Today my fortune cookie spoke to me...

It said: You will find what you search for is already in your hand

um.............

Well, to be honest, I'm not quite sure what that means as I was holding the fortune cookie. It was obviously profound as most fortune cookies are. However on the whole, I think this whole fortune cookie business has a cosmic flaw...you never seem quite able to get a decent one. I mean let's be honest here, most fortune cookies say crap like "the path you seek is right in front of you." Well yeah, if I was headed that direction in the first place then it probably was the path I was seeking. We see them as a sign of luck, but has anyone ever had a cookie that didn't just tell them what they already knew?

"you will have success in your life"
"you give of yourself and others give to you"

Why don't they ever say anything useful like, " Don't stand there, a bird will crap in your hair," or "Don't date a guy with dark hair, he tends to cheat" ?

Sigh.....
