Happy New Year: Blessings For An Abundant Year!


 We will open the book. Its pages are blank. We are going to put words on them ourselves. The book is called Opportunity and its first chapter is New Year's Day. - Edith Lovejoy Pierce



 
“Another fresh new year is here . . . William Arthur Ward
Another year to live!
To banish worry, doubt, and fear,
To love and laugh and give!
This bright New Year is given me
To live each day with zest . . .
To daily grow and try to be
My highest and my best!
I have the opportunity
Once more to right some wrongs,
To pray for peace, to plant a tree,
And sing more joyful songs!”
 

For 2013, I wish you and yours:
Health
♥ Happiness
♥ Hope
♥ Abundance
♥ Grace
♥ PEACE & Love
♥ Wisdom
♥ Friendship
♥ Goodwill
♥ Success
♥Adventure
♥ Divine Protection
HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

"Instead of a resolution, some people choose a theme word to live by for the year. Choose a word for 2013 and tell us why you chose it." As per Mamakat's urgings, and Create With Joy's One Word 2013, I choose the word Peace for 2013.  2012 was rift with so much violence and anguish; so many families ended the year with sadness. I pray that Peace will prevail in 2013.
Some Food for Thought: What are your goals/resolutions for the New Year? What impact will you make on your life and on others in your community in 2013?
I would love to hear from you: Please leave me a comment. Thank You!

Until Next Time…

I just joined in on the One Word 2013 blog hop. I'm visiting from Create With Joy. You have picked a fantastic word to guide you into the new year! My word for 2013 is 'Embrace'. I hope you will stop by for a visit.

Happy New Year! :) Sorry, I don't usually have a resolution or any word of inspiration during new year. heheh

Thank you Donna for your feedback... Embrace is a terrific word; it's an all encompassing word so I love it. :-)

For 2013, I am praying that God will bless my online shop with more customers. I will reciprocate it with quality works. I also want to lose some pounds.

Happy New Year and God bless you more.

Happy New Year! Choosing a theme for the year is an interesting idea. I like what you said about the pages for 2013 are blank. It's a fresh start if 2012 was not a good year.

TY Jellybelly! Wishing you bliss and peace in 2013! :-)

What a wonderful set of new year greetings and sms. I've been browsing for many varieties of new year messages so I could come up with the best one that I could write in my new year card. Thanks for sharing!
