Cookie Wisdom

Too long, I know.

I have just had a brilliant stretch of five days, brimming with life, Peace, and understanding; I am compelled to write, but distilling the essence of this weekend to a page will take a while. Patience, please. Suffice it to say, I am giving over, finally, all parts of myself to the all-knowing, ever-loving Creator. "Lord Jesus Christ, have mercy on me a sinner," has become my soul's chant and my Center.

Yet...this particular entry is not for deep definition of life change. I have been collecting bits of wisdom to share with you for some time, and I intend to do it... here and now. These are my fortune cookie fortunes collected over the last three weeks because the Magic Theatre stocked the snack table with a massive bag of cookies. An odd snack I know, but at least now you get to enjoy it with me. (By the way, Tough Titty's up and running; here are a couple reviews: http://www.variety.com/review/VE1117939561.html?categoryid=33&cs=1 or http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2009/02/02/DD3I15I99A.DTL&hw=Tough+Titty&sn=001&sc=1000)

The fortunes:
The evening promises romantic interests.
You will inherit a large sum of money.
You will bring sunshine into someone's life.
You will soon be crossing great waters on a fun vacation.
Prepare for an exciting trip soon to come your way.
Need some adventure and enjoyment? Take a vacation.
You will soon meet a life long kindred spirit.
Your friends will soon give you a great surprise.
More art in your life at this time will help you feel better.
It is time to help a friend in need.
You will make many changes before settling down happily.
Now is the time to try something new.
Travelling to the east will bring you great rewards [sic].

About these I have two thoughts: they really want me to take a vacation, and how many Calories do these bits of wisdom represent??

More about my peace-filled time later. I hope not a lot later.

Until then, I will be reading, praying, thinking, processing, and fixing various things at Raphael House.
