gotta go for some Hóng BÄo Happy Chinese New Year! Happy new year Happy new year May we all have a vision now and then Of a world where every neighbour is a friend Happy new year Happy new year May we all have our hopes, our will to try If we don't we might as well lay down and die You and I Seems to me now That the dreams we had before Are all dead, nothing more Than confetti on the floor It's the end of a decade In another ten years time Who can say what we'll find What lies waiting down the line
Sometimes I see How the brave new world arrives And I see how it thrives In the ashes of our lives Oh yes, man is a fool And he thinks he'll be okay Dragging on, feet of clay Never knowing he's astray Keeps on going anyway... A very wonderful video celebrating the New Year! Chinese New Year Greetings - Welcome Year of The Rabbit 2011 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gMFAwJNUzeI http://tinyurl.com/4n4wctw and http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Tl4rRWx2aY&feature=related http://tinyurl.com/4wx6plg The Year of the Rabbit is a peaceful year, very much welcomed and desired after the fierce year of the Tiger. In Chinese mythology, the Rabbit is a symbol of endurance and their essence is said to have originated from the Moon.During the Chinese mid-Autumn festival when the Moon is usually at its best, Chinese children still carry lit paper lanterns made in the form of a Rabbit, and climb the hills to look at the Moon and admire the Moon Hare.We should go somewhere tranquil to sooth our wounds and get some well deserved rest after all the encounters of the year before. Good taste and enhancement will excel on everything, and persons will recognize that influence is better than force. --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, cardemaister <no_reply@...> wrote: > > > --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, cardemaister no_reply@ wrote: > > > > > > --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, merudanda <no_reply@> wrote: > > > > > > > > > Is not blonde but Swedish! > > > > I think she's originally Canadian (Canuck father, Finnish mother?) > > > > Well: > > [...]my mother, whose roots were Finnish, was Protestant > and my French Canadian father, was Catholic. > > -- RoSFoC, p. 37 >
