Guest guest Posted December 31, 2000 Report Share Posted December 31, 2000 Thanks, Michele, for sending this wonderful message as we begin the new year. I especially like the notion: " May you be too large for worry, too noble for anger, and too strong for fear. " May 2001 be a happy and healthy one for you and your loved ones! ----- Original Message ----- From: " A Coolperson " <dusty@...> Sent: Sunday, December 31, 2000 9:43 AM Subject: [ ] Inspiration.htm > InspirationGod bless and all have a happy and prosperous New Year!!!!!!! > > > Daily Inspiration > > > > New Year's Prayer > > May December 31 find you gathered with your beloved family and cherished friends, ushering in the new year ahead.
