Linda Rice's Poem for the New Year:
My thought and wishes for each of you.
From my own lessons learned in life.
Let go of the past, anger, bitterness, hurt feelings,
they keep you from being the best you can be.
Holding on to such memories,
controls your thoughts, thinking and life.
Negative thinking will control you,
you will be looking for hurt feelings,
insults, reasons to be angry, get hurt and find sadness.
Be positive, expect the best.
Changed thinking can
change your outlook on life
and eventually change your life.
Make and effort to wake up each morning with
a smile on your face and share it all day.
You are in charge of your own happiness,
no one can make you happy -- happiness is your choice.
Remember the New Year is a blank page,
you are the composer for each day of the new year.
Isn't it wonderful to have a *new* beginning?
Make the most of it!
Hold family and friends close to your heart,
they are the most importantly part of your life.
Be determined to make memories
with those you love, this year.
It is not your wealth,
status in life, money in the bank,
which are your legacy
to your family and friends.
Your legacy is the memories,
you make with them, which they will savor.
Think before speaking,
hurtful words cannot be taken back.
Open up to family and friends,
sharing your burdens,
will take away the heaviness
on your shoulders.
Your family and friends will listen,
and help you get through to better days.
Believe in the power of family,
friends and prayer, this is life changing.
I wish you a New Year full of new discoveries,
peace of mind,
enough money,
better health and self-esteem,
belief in yourself!
You have touched my heart,
my life and I love you,
I want to thank you,
for all you have added to my life!
I am a better person, because of you!
You are very important to me.
Love and hugs,
Linda.
