May we live to learn well, and learn to live well.
May you live as long as you want,
and never want as long as you live.

I certainly couldn't say it better.

Happy New Year to all.

Well said, Tommy.

I wish for you
Where there is pain, I wish you peace and mercy.
Where there is self-doubting,
I wish you a renewed confidence in your ability to work through it.
Where there is tiredness, or exhaustion,
I wish you understanding, patience, and renewed strength.
Where there is fear, I wish you love, and courage.

Tommy & Thea,

Another year gone,
Time marches on,
Like sand through my fingers,
Hardly any remains at all.

But when I look more closely,
I see just barely a sparkle or two,
From all the sand and debris I have sifted,
And see the friends I have found in you.

Happy New Year, my dear and worthwhile find of friends.

Unionblue

Well, a belated New Year's to all. And I hope you all had a very safe and enjoyable one. The group I belong to hosted it's second annual New Year's gala, with about 50+ in attendance. Not bad for not having a band or any alcohol. We had cd's and a dance mistress and more food then we knew what to do with. A very grand and enjoyable time. There isn't a better group of people then that to have spent New Year's with. We've already started planning our next New Year's event!

So again, Happy New Year to all!

Jenna
