miss fortune

0027040401095709_tn"Listen to the wisdom of the old and you will grow old with wisdom." so says my fortune cookie for the day Ü hmm. i don't know a lot of old people.. but i guess that is just the exact piece of advice i need to hear at the moment Ü thanks to the wisdom of whoever wrote those words in the fortune cookie hehe Ü

anyway.. i love fortune cookies. always been fascinated with them. they have that certain air of mystery. there's a kind of excitement and anticipation before you break open the cookie.. not knowing what advice or warning you will get. a dose of wisdom.. with a cookie to boot! Ü makes it a lot easier to take the advice, hehe.

i've been getting all sorts of "words of wisdom" lately - from friends, readings, talks and yes, the Bible. but i've been justifying myself a lot, too.. not entirely willing to agree with them at all points. i suppose advice is easier to give than to follow. hmm. i guess my fortune cookie message was very timely indeed.

from now on, i'll try to pay more attention to the advice of the people around me. after all, i do want to grow old with wisdom.. Ü
