Receipe For A New Year

The first week of a the 2007 has passed. The new year, started off with meeting long lost friends. I met friends whom i have not seen for a couple of years. We sat, ate and talked about how early life as law students. Wow! That sounds so...so long ago. We had so much fun that there were so many times i laughed until tears blurred by vision. What a cheery way to kick start the year.

Then it was back to work and time to think of careers and other matters for the year.

I received this message in my email today and felt the writer has conveyed the emotions, thoughts and feelings superbly...this message has to be shared...so i have posted it below.



Receipe for a new year!!!!!!! Take twelve whole months.
Clean them thoroughly of all
bitterness, hate, and jealousy.
Make them fresh and clean as possible
Now cut each month into twenty-eight,
thirty or thirty-one different parts,
but don't make 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,
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.

Have a blessed New year!!!!
