RECIPE FOR A HAPPY NEW YEAR
Take twelve whole months.
Clean them thoroughly of all bitterness,
hate, and jealousy.
Make them just as fresh and clean as possible.
Now cut each month into twenty-eight, thirty, or thirty-one different parts,
but don't make up the whole batch at once.
Prepare it one day at a time out of these ingredients.
Mix well into each day one part of faith,
one part of patience, one part of courage,
and one part of work.
Add to each day one part of hope,
faithfulness, generosity, and kindness.
Blend with one part prayer, one part meditation,
and one good deed.
Season the whole with a dash of good spirits,
a sprinkle of fun, a pinch of play,
and a cupful of good humor.
Pour all of this into a vessel of love.
Cook thoroughly over radiant joy,
garnish with a smile,
and serve with quietness, unselfishness,
and cheerfulness.
You're bound to have a happy new year.

DON'T LOOK BACK.. As you travel through life there are always those times So pack up your troubles and take a step forward There might be adventures you never imagined Perhaps you'll find friendships that spring from new things Perhaps you'll go places you never expected
When decisions just have to be made,
When the choices are hard, and solutions seem scarce,
And the rain seems to soak your parade. There are some situations where all you can do
Is simply let go and move on,
Gather your courage and choose a direction
That carries you toward a new dawn.
The process of change can be tough,
But think about all the excitement ahead
If YOU can be stalwart enough!
Just waiting around the next bend,
And wishes and dreams just about to come true
In ways you can't yet comprehend!
As you challenge your status quo,
And learn there are so many options in life,
And so many ways you can grow!
And see things that you've never seen,
Or travel to fabulous, faraway worlds
And wonderful spots in between!
Perhaps you'll find warmth and affection and caring
And somebody special who's there
To help you stay centered and listen with interest
To stories and feelings you share.
Perhaps you'll find comfort in knowing your friends So keep putting one foot in front of the other,
Are supportive of all that you do,
And believe that whatever decisions you make,
They'll be the right choices for you.
And taking your life day by day ...
There's a brighter tomorrow that's just down the road
Don't look back! You're not going that way!
