I collect fortune cookie messages from eating at Chinese restaurants.. They are fun to read and can be quite inspirational...
A few of them I've gotten are:
"Focus on the journey, not the destination"
"A good time to finish up old tasks"
"Many receive advice, only the wise profit from it"
"A modest man never talks about himself"
"The person who learns but does not think is lost"
Do you check out the fortune cookie messages? Have you been inspired by them or found sound advice from them..
Do you have messages to share :) ?

Next trip to the USA I will go to a chinese restaurant and insure they give me a fortune cookie. The restaurants here do not give them. :(

Nope, I sure don't remember my last message. Or any of them, really.
