NEW YEARS

May you get a clean bill of health from your dentist, your cardiologist, your urologist, your psychiatrist, your plumber and the taxman
May your hair, your teeth, your abs, your stocks not fall
And may your blood pressure, your triglycerides, your white blood count and your mortgage interest not rise
Mau New Year’s eve find you seated around the table with people who care about you
May you find the food better, the environment quieter, the cost much cheaper, and the pleasure more fulfilling than anything else you might ordinarily do that night
May you see in the mirror delight you, and what others see in you delight them
May someone love you enough to forgive your faults, be blind to your blemishes and tell the world about your virtues
May the telemarketers wait to make their sales calls until you finish dinner
May the commercials on TV not be louder that the program you have been watching and may your check book and your budget balance and include generous amounts for charity
May you remember to say “I love you” at least once a day to your closest friend, your children, your spouse
And may we live in a world at peace and with awareness of Gods love in every sunset, every flowers unfolding petals, every baby’s smile and every wonderful, astonishing, miraculous beat of your heart
