Dear Readers;
I’ve been feeling a tad guilty about not writing my New Year’s post…other projects have taken my attention elsewhere, and then, Presto, my husband shared this poem which he received from a client. We don’t know who the author is but appreciate the smart words…
Here you go…
A New Year’s wish for you and yours,
May you get a clean bill of health from your dentist, your
ophthalmologist, your psychiatrist, your cardiologist, your urologist,
your proctologist, your gynecologist, your podiatrist, your plumber,
and the Income Tax Department .
May your hair, your teeth, your face-lift, your love handles, and your
stocks never fall, and may your blood pressure, your triglycerides,
your cholesterol, your white blood count, your weight, and your
property assessments never increase.
May you be sensitive to the needs of others and may you create within
yourself integration of your own needs.
May you laugh at yourself and realize if you were supposed to touch
your toes while exercising, the Lord would have placed them further
up, and may you realize the reason so many people take up jogging is
to hear heavy breathing again.
May what you see in the mirror delight you and what others see in you
delight them.
May someone love you enough to accept and forgive your faults and be
blind to your blemishes, and tell the whole world about your virtues.
May you live in a world at peace, with an awareness of the beauty of
every sunset, every flower, every child’s smile, and every wonderful
astonishing beat of your own heart.
If by laughter I can cause you to wipe one tear from your cheek, that
is my only reward – the government takes everything else!
Above all, may you continue to smile, may your life be filled with
laughter, and may you never forget the words found in the Book of
Proverbs, “A gloomy spirit rots the bones; but a merry heart is like
good medicine.”
Be happy & grateful to be alive and having loving family and friends !
Hope you have a healthy, happy, prosperous, sweet New Year!
