Truth in fortune cookies...

So, I spent a lot of time today thinking about how truthful people really are about the things that really matter. Not petty white lies, not little fibs, but really who they are in their soul, their entire being, and why this matters that these ideals be somewhat concrete. Anyway... I wrapped Christmas presents for the majority of the night (after Christmas shopping with Eric begging for the Hello Kitty karaoke machine WHICH by the way has a built in video camera so you can "watch yourself be a star") I came up to get ready for bed and check Facebook and saw two fortune's I had saved on my desk. The fortunes read as follows:


"If I bring what is inside me, what I bring forth will save me." 
                ... and ... 
"A clever crow will always paint its feather black" 
              -- Thus, confirming the basis of my thoughts today about being yourself, being real, and being true to who you are, what you feel in your heart, and what makes your heart buzz. In a sense, a clever crow will always paint its feather black because that in fact, is just what it is: black. It will never try to be something different. Thus the moral of the story.. I mean, people spend their whole lives searching for their penguin, that one penguin they continuously come back to no matter what -- don't deny or be ashamed of who you are because everyone has a penguin.


It's time for bed. I have training for work in the AM and more Wicca books to read because I have been told to research due to my "natural lifestyle" and fascination with the Salem Witch Trials... it's been my new rage & apparently my new joy... but I wanted to share my fortune cookies with you and the simplicity of truth in small packages.
