your inner land.

you.
May it lead you to renewed awareness and appreciation of whatever you
too easily take for granted.
May the bonds of love for one another be strengthened as you gather with
your family and friends around the table of festivity and nourishment.
May you daily open the gift of your life and be grateful for the hidden
treasures it contains.
May the coming year be one of good health for you.
May you have energy and vitality.
May you care well for your body, mind and spirit.
May you go often to the Bethlehem of your heart and visit the One who
offers you peace.
