A new year
and here is the old but again too soon gone.
Every year my dear sister sent any Christmas cards, but New Year cards. And again and again with wonderful quotes, poems, sayings ...
This year she has chosen this:
Take 12 months
brush them clean of Envy, bitterness, greed, and pedantry
dissect it in 30 or 31 parts,
enough so that the stock for a year.
each day is done separately from
1 part 2 parts and labor cheerfulness and humor. Man
add 3 heaped tablespoons of optimism
1 teaspoon tolerance,
a grain of irony and a pinch bar.
is then poured over the ground with lots of love.
The finished dish is adorned with bouquets of small attentions
and serve it every day with joy.
Katharina Elisabeth Goethe
I wish you and of course us a wonderful 2011.
