Timothy and Daniel treated us to Chinese carryout last night, complete with fortune cookies.
Here's mine, and I look at the little message in two ways.
One: I can take the fortune literally and to see what "good things" come to me.
But what if I'd picked a different fortune cookie? What if this cookie was really intended for someone else? So then the second perspective would apply.
Two: Be the "good thing" that happens to someone today.
So let's not be too busy or preoccupied to notice the good things 'when they show up.
And let's make some good things happen for others, too.
This should guarantee some joy, even if Monday is otherwise stressful, as Mondays often are.
Thoughts?
