QUOTE of the WEEK:

"We spend January 1 walking through our lives, room by room, drawing up a list of work to be done, cracks to be patched. 

Maybe this year, to balance the list, we ought to walk through the rooms of our lives – not looking for flaws, but for potential."

Ellen Goodman

THOUGHT for YOUR WEEK:

Recipe for a Happy New Year

by Author Unknown

 

Take twelve fine, full-grown months; see that these are thoroughly free from old memories of bitterness, rancor and hate.

Cleanse them completely from every clinging spite; pick off all specks of pettiness and littleness;

in short, see that these months are freed from all the past—have them fresh and clean as when they first came from the great storehouse of Time.

 

Cut these months into thirty or thirty-one equal parts.

Do not attempt to make up the whole batch at one time (so many persons spoil the entire lot this way) but prepare one day at a time.

 

Into each day put equal parts of faith, patience, courage, work (some people omit this ingredient and so spoil the flavor of the rest), hope, fidelity, liberality, kindness, rest (leaving this out is like leaving the oil out of the salad dressing— don't do it), prayer, meditation, and one well-selected resolution.

 

Put in about one teaspoonful of good spirits, a dash of fun, a pinch of folly, a sprinkling of play, and a heaping cupful of good humor.

 QUOTES for YOUR WEEK:

We will open the book. Its pages are blank. We are going to put words on them ourselves. The book is called Opportunity and its first chapter is New Year's Day.

Edith Lovejoy Pierce

 

A Merry Christmas to everybody! A Happy New Year to all the world!

Charles Dickens

 

Every man should be born again on the first day of January. Start with a fresh page. Take up one hole more in the buckle if necessary, or let down one, according to circumstances; but on the first of January let every man gird himself once more, with his face to the front, and take no interest in the things that were and are past.

Henry Ward Beecher

 

Today a new sun rises for me; everything lives, everything is animated, everything seems to speak to me of my passion, everything invites me to cherish it.

Anne De Lencios

 

The Old Year has gone.  Let the dead past bury its own dead.  The New Year has taken possession of the clock of time.  All hail the duties and possibilities of the coming twelve months!

Edward Powell

 

Let this coming year be better than all the others. Vow to do some of the things you've always wanted to do but couldn't find the time.

Ann Landers
