Wishes For a New Year

May we be fortunate significant and longer lasting events that occur,
be on the plus side of life's ledger.
While negative situations be insignificant, and short lived.
Experience good health in the important areas, 
and find the energy to push through the minor aches and pains,
and the stress of the workplace,
maintaining some optimism about tomorrow.
Believe we are deserving to be cared for by others.
Stay able to love and forgive ourselves,
for all the mistakes we will make in the coming year,
so others in our lives may respond in kind.
