May your hair, your teeth, your face-lift, your abs, and your stocks not fall; and may your blood pressure, your triglycerides, your cholesterol, your white blood count, and your mortgage interest not rise.

May you get a clean bill of health from your dentist, your cardiologist, your gastroenterologist, your urologist, your proctologist, your podiatrist, your psychiatrist, your plumber, and the IRS.

May you find a way to travel from anywhere to anywhere during rush hour in less than an hour, and when you get there, may you find a parking space.

May every special occasion find you seated around the dinner table, together with your beloved family and cherished friends. You will find the food better, the environment quieter, the cost much cheaper, and the pleasure much more fulfilling than anything else you might do at that time.

May what you see in the mirror delight you, and what others
see in you delight them.

May the telemarketers wait to make their sales calls until you finish dinner, may your checkbook and your budget balance, and may they include generous amounts for those in need.

May you remember to say "I love you" at least once a day to
your spouse, your child, and your parent(s). You can say it
to your secretary, your nurse, your butcher, your photographer, your masseuse, your seamstress, your hairdresser, or your tennis instructor, (but not with that "twinkle" in your eye.)

May we live in a world at peace, with the awareness of the beauty in every sunset, every flower's unfolding petals, every baby's smile and every wonderful, astonishing, miraculous beat of our heart.

Bless you with every happiness, great health, peace, and much love during the next year and all those that follow.
