What’s in a Fortune Cookie…you never know what's in them till you open them and then it’s too late
On Saturday I was with my day time partner and we stopped at a Chinese Buffet in Brighten called Tin Tin. We grabbed out take out trays and loaded them up with goodies, then headed to the rig to eat. I tossed the cookie onto the dashboard and enjoyed my meal. Afterwords I reached for the cookie. I normally toss it away not really liking the taste. But this time I decided to crack it open and look inside so I opened it up and tossed the cookie in the trash. Normally there a cute saying on one side and on the other in the Chinese word of the day and the lucky numbers. I glanced at the saying then turned over the paper the word was School, nodding with approval I took this as a good sign of future happenings. Later that night after going none stop most of the afternoon, my overnight partner came up with the famous question “Where are we going to eat?” Out of the blue came Tin Tin, I never eat the same place twice normally, was it fate or the beef and broccoli dish. I’m not sure myself either way we ended up there again. So we get back to the base and eat afterwards I crack open the cookie again and this time the word was student. I always look for signs to let me know if I’m on the right path or not; now I know I am.
