Photo Reflection of the Day #76: Cookie's Fortune
What Is It
A photo of a fortune cookie that reads, "Fear is interest paid on a debt you may not owe."Why It's Today's Pick
The fortune cookie was a pretty easy choice for today's picture. I went out to lunch at a Chinese restaurant with my colleagues and this was my fortune at the end. I found it a curious fortune for me to get because I generally don't think of myself as carrying around a lot of fear. At least not to my knowledge. However, as I started to write a quasi-self-righteous post about why I don't carry fear, I began to reflect and realize that there are times when I'm rushing or feel anxious about something I'm engaged in. When I give myself the chance and step back, I can trace the rushing and anxiousness to some element of fear. Sometimes, it's small stuff or familiar stuff, and on occasion, it's completely something I didn't even realize that I was holding onto. So I can would only add to this that it's not only a debt you may not owe--it may be interest you're paying without even realizing it.This submission is part of the 365 Challenge.
