an apt fortune

"You have firm convictions--stand strong behind them."

So exhorted my fortune cookie of yesterday afternoon. Normally I am not impressed with fortune cookies (not only are they very bland, the messages contained within them usually have no relevance to my life). However, prior to the appearance of this fortune cookie, I had been having a conversation (for the better part of the last week) with someone who was trying (unsuccessfully) to change my mind about some of my firmly held convictions in the area of personal morality. Thus, I found it quite serendipitous that the universe would align itself with me, even in this tiny way.

Sometimes the smallest and most random things can make my day.
