Hello All,

A year has elapsed since the last time I greeted the nature spirits in my garden and
asked for peace, protection, growth, energy and wisdom. Today in our circle of friends
on this board, there are many new faces, new hearts, new energy and many new ideas
that are brought to be shared with one another.

This year as I will greet the Baby New Year, Baby Millennium and say “Hello, you who
have arrived on the first day in a new time, I pray for you. In you is the light of the
world, the hope for a thousand new tomorrow’s, a time when man and nature may at
last find peace with each other.”

Tomorrow, on the first day of the New Millennium I will once again go into my garden
and ask Father Sky and Mother Earth to protect the Baby Millennium and all who live in
this baby’s time. With pureness of heart, I will go to this special place and ask God and
every being that looks over all of us, this planet, our solar system and every person
here now or to arrive, to live in gracefulness, peace, light and ask that those who will be
here, to form a new energy. One full of love for everyone and everything and know, if
this can be achieved, there is nothing but the miraculous to look forward to as each day
greets us in this New Year 2000.

To each of you, may peace, light, wisdom, prosperity, growth, good energy, kindness
and gentleness become part of your life, every day of this new year.
