Recipe For A Happy New Year
(Found this on my Green Standard Diary)

Take 12 months. Clean them thoroughly of all BITTERNESS, HATE, and JEALOUSY. Make them just as fresh and clean as possible. Now cut each month into 28, 30 or 31 different parts, but don't make up the whole batch at once. Prepare it one day at a time out of these ingredients.

Mix well into each day one part of FAITH, one part of PATIENCE, one part of COURAGE, and one part of sincere WORK. Add to each day one part of HOPE, FAITHFULNESS, GENEROSITY, and KINDNESS. Blend with one part of PRAYER, one part of MEDITATION and one good DEED. Season the whole with a dash of good SPIRITS, a sprinkle of FUN, a pinch of PLAY, and a cupful of good HUMOR.

Pour all of this into a vessel of LOVE. Cook thoroughly over radiant JOY. Garnish with a SMILE, and serve with QUIETNESS, UNSELFISHNESS, AND CHEERFULNESS.

You're bound to have a HAPPY NEW YEAR. And do this recipe every New Year! Promise?
