Picked up some Bazooka Joe bubble gum for my son last week. A comic and a piece of gum -- the simple joys of life.
Just grabbed a couple of pieces to keep me from diving into something more caloric. Forgot that the comic also has a fortune.
"You are anxious to achieve something very important. You will succeed."
I start my first seminary class today and my mind is all full with the many stages I'll need to go through to become a minister. How I'll do this with kids ... get an M. Div, take the UU classes, do an internship, do a hospital chaplaincy, go before the RSCC and the MFC ... and then I get that fortune.
Heh. Would God/the universe/et. al. really speak through a Bazooka Joe fortune?
Unpeel next piece of gum. Read fortune.
"Don't look a gift horse in the mouth!"
Okay, God. Gotcha. And thanks for chucking me under the chin. I needed it.
