I love Chinese food. It's the perfect kind of meal in my book. You get delicious soup, an amazing main course (normally too big to eat in one sitting, leaving you leftovers for the next day), followed by the best dessert of them all: fortune cookies. Now, I don't actually like eating fortune cookies, but I do LOVE collecting the fortunes, and I do believe that they come true.

A little over a year ago, I received a fortune that read, "You will be happily surprised by a long-time friend." Prior to getting that fortune, I had been trying to get in contact with the parents of one of my good friends to see how he had been doing (there were obstacles he was overcoming in his personal life), as I hadn't been able to get in touch with him or any of them for months at that point.

That same night, I got a phone call from a random number, which just so happened to be my friend's mom. The following day, I got another call from his dad. While we were on the phone, I had the opportunity to talk to my friend for the first time in about three months. I was ecstatic.

From that day on, I began believing that fortunes do in fact come true, and I have collected them ever since. It's nice to read them each day and get a little bit of inspiration to keep going when times get rough. I know that they will all come true so long as I keep the faith, just as I'm sure they will for you! So, here are 46 fortunes I have collected to give you a little bit of faith when you are needing it most.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
