I found this week-old fortune while organizing a pile of index cards on my desk. Serendipitous because I had just read Havi Brooks’ post about dealing with random help requests which helped me clarify my own help policy.
Oh, and for the record, I don’t keep all fortune cookies, only a crazy person with an index card fetish would do something like that. I only keep the good ones, my fave being from a Berkeley Chinese joint circa 1995:
“Discontent is the first step in the progress of a man or a nation.“
