Today I opened up a fortune cookie and this was my fortune:

The irony was so funny on this especially since I probably could have written that fortune, LOL.
For me the message in this is that sometimes things don't go as expect or as fast as we expected as we transition. However things go easier when you try not to rush things and relax a little about it.

That's almost comical. Good thing you have support from the cosmos within that of a fortune cookie!

Whoa, that's crazy!
I had one a few days before I got married that said, "You and your wife will be happy in your life together." Now I realize that it didn't matter which one of us got it.

Yes, I believe this to be true! I mean, what the fortune cookie said. I really think that if you relax then everything will eventually fall into place. I think the main thing you need is a lot of patience to get people to call you by the right gender.

Go with the flow will make your transition ever so much easier IN BED
*runs*
*walks back wearing a hat*
What? That person who ran back there not wearing a hat? No, I didn't see her, and she's totally not me! But ah, the fortune cookie! Signs are out there all the time, we just see them when we're ready for them. 🙂 It's good advise that we all need!

My favorite fortune cookie: "The whole world is a very narrow bridge, but the most important thing is to not be afraid"

it may have been in a fortune cookie, in a local Chinese restaurant, but it was actually from a Rabbi w ho lived in the Ukraine, in the 18th century when things were really bad. Its actually a song called "Kol Ha-Olam Kulo.
