"This past year has been a good year and next year will be a good year also. Years are what you make them. We must learn to make our own years and live our own lives. Once we are married to the idea of making our own decisions and not living our lives simply to please others at the expense of our own happiness, our future years before us shall all be 'good years' and our lives shall alter for the better. Our life shall become filled with spontaneous joy, exciting experiences mingled with the touch of sadness from unpleasant happenings in the lives of family and friends, and oh so much happiness, satisfaction and contentment that you feel like you could burst in sheer jubilation and shoot your message of love and peace across the cosmos. Such is the magic of Christmas and the secret ingredient of happiness." William Forde: December 31st, 2012.
