This is what my fortune cookie says!! Fortune cookies!! I love fortune cookies..I do not know whether it reveals the fortune and all, I just know that it makes me feel good!! :) :)
I went for lunch with my friends the other day to some Chinese Restaurant and found my fortune!! I thought this is some chinese tradition but wikipedia says that "Fortune cookies are often served as a dessert in Chinese restaurants in the United States and some other countries, but are absent in China."
The origin of fortune cookies is said to be in Japan.As far back as the 19th century, a cookie very similar in appearance to the modern Fortune cookie was made in Kyoto, Japan, and there is a Japanese temple tradition of random fortunes, called omikuji.
I like fortune cookies as they have this feel good factor attached to them!! If you are having a bad day, and you get a fortune cookie that says "It will change soon" or as in my case "a good news on its way!!" you just feel good..So I am waiting for that good news now!! :):):)
This is an example that how sometimes a simple gesture can change ones mood and sometimes outlook? I know the logical people here will say that this is just a random piece of paper and all..But I don't think so..I like the fortune cookies, the cookies and fortune both!! For some people these might act like omen..But for me, they make me smile!! and make me feel good!!
