Artist's Statement

<sub>
<b>NEW YEAR THOUGHTS</b>

Take twelve whole months.
Clean them thoroughly of all bitterness,
hate, and jealousy.
Make them just as fresh and clean as possible.

Now cut each month into twenty-eight, thirty, or
thirty-one different parts,
but don't make up the whole batch at once.
Prepare it one day at a time out of these ingredients.

Mix well into each day
- one part of faith,
- one part of patience,
- one part of courage,
- one part of work.

Add to each day
- one part of hope,
- faithfulness,
- generosity,
- kindness.

Blend with
- one part prayer,
- one part meditation,
- one good deed.

Season the whole with a dash of good spirits,
a sprinkle of fun, a pinch of play,
and a cupful of good humor.

Pour all this into a vessel of love.
Cook thoroughly over radiant joy,
garnish with a smile,
and serve with quietness,
unselfishness, and cheerfulness.
You're bound to have a happy new year!
