Happy New Year!

Below is a wonderful excerpt from the email to a friend of a friend heralding the New Year.
It was so beautifully written that we knew we couldn't have said it better ourselves.
After reading, be sure to check out our new article on the most delightful
Irish cuisine festival competition and
gourmet extravaganza. It will most likely, absolutely delight you. : )
Happy New Year!
Dear Family and Friends,
We are delighted as we embark upon a new beginning: A new year, a new American
president, a new policy of peace and kindness towards our neighbors of the
world.
I send hope of integrating your life purpose with that of replenishing our
planet. May you walk softly upon our earth, conscious of giving back more than
you take.
May the New Year bring us all to a state of wakeful awareness in order that we
can begin to bring about the healing that we have ignored for so long.
May we all use less water, buy less stuff (especially imported), eat
locally-grown food, recycle all that we don't need anymore, balance our work
with pleasures that inspire us to create more beauty, smile a lot, sing and
dance often, walk or ride a bike whenever we can, adopt a child in a faraway
country, realize that we are rich beyond our wildest dreams, read poetry, get
involved in our community, carpool.
Do Something Now, recognize that you can make a difference in a very small way
and that there is a ripple effect to all that you do.
May we all learn to simplify our lives and find satisfaction in the little
pleasures which surround us on this amazing planet, and may we find the space in
our hearts to accept others for who they are and learn how to share the Earth
with all other sentient beings.
We send you blessings for your health and joy to your world.
We have much to be grateful for… and that includes having you in our lives.
May 2009 be one of your happiest years and may you experience great peace! |
