These greetings are sent with heartfelt good wishes for all.
We wish you the happiest and merriest of holidays to you and yours.
In these economic hard times, money is not the only way to happiness.
We all want to be treated with respect. The greatest gift you can
give to your family is a peaceful, safe, loving home where all members feel
appreciated and respected. It has nothing to do with money.
If you are an honorable, civilized, law abiding citizen who is willing
to work hard and accept personal responsibility for your own actions,
you are what makes our country strong and united. Together we will
get through the hard times.
Through the goodness of those who have more, there are safety nets
all around so that one may have a roof over your head and food to
eat and medical attention if you need it. It is a two way street.
Those who receive should give back something in return. This
is what makes our country united. We all work together. Beware
of those who want to pit one group against another and divide our
country.
One way to give back to your country is to be an honorable, civilized,
law abiding citizen. Base your self-esteem on being a healthy,
clean, honorable, law abiding person and not on how much money
you have or do not have.
In these stressful times, if you cannot control your temper, remember
this: You have given yourself permission to behave the way you
do, good or bad.......you can give yourself permission to control your
temper and not yell. Practice. You do have control....use it. Being
honorable and trustworthy is also a gift to your family, friends and
community. It is the best present you can give to yourself, your family
and your friends.
Practice your A. B. C's.....Always be charming. It has nothing to do
with money.
Good Manners are Powerful! They make you feel relaxed and confident.

Good manners are the great equalizer. They apply to everyone, are free, and available to all. They are
the opposite of being elitist, arbitrary, and artificial. When society refuses to obey the practical rules of
etiquette that govern behavior, rudeness and thoughtlessness will prevail.
