Thoughts for the New Year!

We've seen the passing of another year.
For many it's been filled with pain and tears.
We've seen our loved ones in their decline.
We've had to accept that they won't be fine.

Some of us had to say good bye,
To a long time loved one, and we've all cried.
But there have been times in this past year,
That certain events have brought us cheer.

There are so many friends that are on the list,
And I know there's names I will have missed.
But better friends I could not have bought.
And here is just a New Year's thought.

If it were possible that a wish could come true,
Then this is my New Year's wish for you.
May the coming year be full of hope,
And may we be given the strength to cope.

Let courage, faith and patience abound.
And let us pray that a cure will be found.
And now at the close of another year,
My friends, I wish you a Happy New Year.

My friends sent messages for the new year. These are few that I like. One is taken from the theme song of Class of ’96

Part of me is excited to begin this brand new life
And part of me is crying for the past I left behind
But I embrace the brave new future
Let all my bridges burn
With anxious eyes, we'll watch life's pages turn
You and I have so much more to learn.

As the year comes to an end,
I thank God for the blessings for you,
my dear whom I shared this blessed day
of joy, happiness and faith.

Always welcome the new day with a new spirit,
a smile on your face,
love in your heart, and
good thoughts in your mind.
May we have a meaningful and great year ahead

Wishing you 12 months of happiness,
52 weeks of fun,
365 days of laughter,
8,760 hours of good luck,
525,600 minutes of joy,
31,536,000 seconds of success!

Hidup ini hanya sebentar.
Bentar senang, bentar sedih.
Bentar marah bentar ketawa.
Bentar berduit, bentar boke,
bentar lagi ... Tahun Baru!!

Semoga kita semua mendapatkan kebahagiaan lahir dan bathin serta selalu dalam lindunganNya.
Semoga kita dianugerahi kedewasaan yang lebih lagi dalam berpikir, berucap, bertindak, dan berkarya.

The year has almost gone. There were fears and tears but we also had reasons to cheer.
Life's like a book, everyday has a new page with things to remember.
May you have a good chapter in this coming year.
Wishing you a greater health, wealth, and love in 2006.
Health makes things possible, wealth makes things work, love makes things beautiful. May you have all of them.

Remo is such a good friend. He wished that I’ll find a new boyfriend over in 2006 "(one that is not easily jealous! Yes I’m a little selfish now). Good health for you and all the ones you love (+ an increase in weight of a few Kg) and last but not least, may you have peace of mind throughout 2006! (Yes I’m still searching for a book for you) Big hug and a big kiss (while nobody sees it … at this moment of the year it’s ok kan?"
