Puskaraksa das: Dear Friend,<\/p>\n
May Krishna make your year a happy one!
\nNot by shielding you from all sorrows and pain,
\nBut by strengthening you to bear it, as it comes;
\nNot by making your path easy,
\nBut by making you sturdy to travel any path;
\nNot by taking hardships from you,
\nBut by taking fear from your heart;
\nNot by granting you unbroken sunshine,
\nBut by keeping your face bright, even in the shadows;
\nNot by making your life always pleasant,
\nBut by showing you when people and their causes need you most,
\nand by making you anxious to be there to help.
\nGod\u2019s love, peace, hope and joy to you for the year ahead.<\/p>\n
Sincerely, <\/p>\n
Yours in service<\/p>\n
