I received this from a close friend. I wish it for all of you.
A Wish For The New Millennium
May your hair, your teeth, your face-lift, your abs and your stocks not
fall; and May your blood pressure, your triglycerides, your cholesterol,
your white blood count and your mortgage interest not rise.
May you get a clean bill of health from your dentist, your cardiologist,
your gastro-endocrinologist, your urologist, your proctologist, your
podiatrist, your psychiatrist, your plumber and the IRS.
May you find a way to travel from anywhere to anywhere in the rush hour
in less than an hour, and when you get there may you find a parking
space.
May Friday evening, December 31, find you seated around the dinner
table, together with your beloved family and cherished friends, ushering
in the New Year ahead. You will find the food better, the environment
quieter, the cost much cheaper, and the pleasure much more fulfilling
than anything else you might ordinarily do that night.
May you wake up on January 1st, finding that the world has not come to
an end, the lights work, the water faucets flow, and the sky has not
fallen.
May you go to the bank on Monday morning, January 3rd and find your
account is in order, your money is still there and any mistakes are in
your favor.
May you ponder on January 4th; How did this ultramodern civilization of
ours manage to get itself traumatized by a possible slip of a blip on a
chip made out of sand.
May you have the strength to go through a year of presidential
campaigning, and May some of the promises made be kept. May you believe
at least half of what the candidates propose, and may those elected
fulfill at least half of what they promise, and the miracle of reducing
taxes and balancing budgets happen.
May what you see in the mirror delight you, and what others see in you
delight them.
May the telemarketers wait to make their sales calls until you finish
dinner, and may your checkbook and your budget balance, and may they
include generous amounts for charity.
May you remember to say "I love you" at least once a day to your spouse,
your child, your parent; but not to your secretary, your nurse, your
masseuse, your hairdresser or your tennis instructor.
May we live as intended, in a world at peace and the awareness of the
beauty in every sunset, every flower's unfolding petals, every baby's
smile and every wonderful, astonishing, miraculous beat of our heart.
May God Bless Us All
"FT"
