Birthday Greetings

I know it has been late posting my new post, but it took time cause I was just busy with thinking a topic for this blog...

The more you praise and celebrate your life,the more there is in life to celebrate
by Oprah Winfrey

As new year had begin and there were so many greetings been received on occasion of new year, for your new year to be more prosperous and happy and now everyone is busy with their life and work as holidays are finished and busy life is been started in full fledged. I thought why not I should ask everyone to take some time from your busy scheduled and start thinking on my topic. While everyone is busy in their life and forgot (few smart ones don't) one and the most important occasion of greeting in life of our loved ones, which almost starts from the first day of the year till the end of this year and comes every year still many of the us really been forgotten either due to our over loaded life with work or some sort of tension. So I thought why not insist you to stop thinking of your work and tension and try to remember this important day which comes in all of us lives and also in our loved ones lives, a day when our loved one just wait for a phone call or a greeting of you, a day which everyone commonly known as ,

“BIRTHDAY...."

We wish you a happy birthday

We wish you a Happy Birthday
Whether we are near or far away miles
We are happy to come together
With all our great big smiles

We are bringing many wishes
Especially wrapped up for you
Wanting you to have very happy times
In the celebrations we do for you

For this party belongs to you
On this your own special day
May all your biggest wishes come true
For you in a very special way

From 1st Jan to 31 Dec of every year the birthday's are been celebrated. It could be anyone you, your friends, your mom, your dad, your siblings, your family members, your neighbors, your dog or your neighbors dog, it could be anyone, anyone around you. And everyone would be just waiting for your wishes either by a sms or by phone call or a greeting card or anything but they would be just waiting two words “happy birthday” from you but, you just forgot to wish that person due to any reason just imagine how that person would feel. So today I am writing on this topic just to remind you that year had just been started and birthdays have just start so don’t forgot to wish your loved ones. Now just take some time from your busy schedule and make a reminder or note down all your loved ones birthday and in start of every month just go through it and recall all the birthdays of that particular month. And call all the love ones whom birthday either you have forgotten this year or last year and while apologizing them wish them belated as well as in advance “happy birthday” if any case you forgot this year also see the smile and relieved the person would be having to just listen those words from you.

Birthday is the day when you and everyone just want to feel special. This is a day when everyone wants to be Amitabh Bachan or now a day’s I can say Barack Obama and just want to be feel good that day who cares what happened but one thing that we cares is that this day should be a remembrance for the life time. So without wasting times just start wishing your loved ones and start grabbing new ideas for their special day

Birthday Blessings

Instead of counting candles,
Or tallying the years,
Contemplate your blessings,
As your birthday nears.
Consider special people
Who love you, and who care,
And others who’ve enriched your life
Just by being there.
Think about the memories
Passing years can never mar,
Experiences great and small
That have made you who you are.
Another year is a happy gift,
So cut your cake, and say,
"Instead of counting birthdays,
I count blessings every day!"

By Joanna Fuchs

So I want to wish all of you Many Many happy returns of the day for those who have their birthday today and for others I want to request you to come here on your birthday and wish yourself from my side and all of your love ones side who may be due to any reason forgot your birthday don’t be dishearten or depressed just enjoy the day as it comes once in a year and is been specially made for u.

I hope that for every candle on your cake you get a wonderful surprise

NEW YEAR GREETINGS

And I said to the man who stood at the gate of the year: Give me a light that I may tread safely into the unknown. And he replied: Go out into the darkness and put your hand into the hand of God. That shall be to you better than light, and safer than a known way.

2008 what a year to left behind.So much have happened in 2008 which would soon be in history after few years...

When the clock strikes twelve on December 31st, people all over the world cheer and start exchanging New Year Wishes with their dear ones. With personal greetings along with a warm hug to the ones who are with us, while SMS ,e-mails,and new year cards are been send to the dear ones who are staying in different countries and cities.For some, this event is no more than a change of a calendar. For others, the New Year symbolizes the beginning of a better tomorrow. So, if you look forward to a good year ahead, spread happiness with wonderful New Year wishes.

Happy New Year!" That greeting will be said and heard for at least the first couple of weeks as a new year gets under way. But the day celebrated as New Year's Day would be same as every year 31 dec come and change the chapter of one year to another one this year 2008 would be completed and its place would be taken by 2009.

As Edith Love joy Pierce had said "We will open the book. Its pages are blank. We are going to put words on them ourselves. The book is called "Opportunity" and its first chapter is New Year's Day. "
So never let the opportunity go away from you ...As another year comes quickly to a close and we come face to face with the things we didn't get done last year and the new promises to do them and others this year-maybe it's time to change our strategy.

New Year is a time of celebration, beginning of all the new work and activities where as leaving all the worst deeds in the past. I truly hope you are looking forward to the holidays and the New Year, and I want to take this opportunity to wish each and every one of you the best of times.I know there must be lot happened in the past year which forces us not to celebrate or be happy in this year but let's not forget that we really do have something to celebrate. We are still here. That's something to be thankful for. We still have people that care about us. And we all have the capacity to make things better. Isn't this freedom to create a better world for ourselves and our loved ones?

Let's get happy and celebrate the spirit of the New Year. Let’s do something that will give us a better future. Let's become part of the solution instead of part of the problem

New Year is a time to ring out the Old and ring in the New with fun, party and celebration among our friends and families. It is that time of year again when we find ourselves saying things like "pata hi nahi chala yeh saal kahan chala gaya?" or maybe even "I will do this and that this year". Well, whatever it is you are saying, I suggest you to dig a little deeper and reflect a little more; to consciously complete this year.

Resolutions are taken to improve the faults and mistake done in the past year and not to continue in upcoming year.But frankly speaking i don't believe in resolutions cause mistakes are the first things which symbolize as person as human and we are made to make mistakes but yes i think a person should knew that his mistake should not become a curse or someone else."Resolutions are made to break"

New Year is a best time to wish your friends and families for their success and prosperity in upcoming year. For this purpose greetings and well wishing cards are used as an effective means to wish each other.

Traditionally, it was thought that what they did on the first day or first few minutes of the year affect the luck they would have throughout the coming year . For that simple reason or escuse, it has become common for folks to celebrate the first few minutes of a brand new year in the company of family and friends. Parties often last into the middle of the night after the ringing in of a new year. It was once believed that the first visitor on New Year's Day would bring either good luck or bad luck the rest of the year. So, best wishes for your friends and families in the beginning of the year may bring lots of luck and prosperity for them.

Don’t sit back and wait for the best wishes to arrive instead step forward and send best wishes to your nearest and dearest ones. You can find lots of New Year wishes ,sms and greetings on web.

A New Year’s Prayer
May God make your year a happy one!
Not by shielding you from all sorrows and pain,
But by strengthening you to bear it, as it comes;
Not by making your path easy,
But by making you sturdy to travel any path;
Not by taking hardships from you,
But by taking fear from your heart;
Not by granting you unbroken sunshine,
But by keeping your face bright, even in the shadows;
Not by making your life always pleasant,
But by showing you when people and their causes need you most,
and by making you anxious to be there to help.
God’s love, peace, hope and joy to you for the year ahead.

CHRISTMAS CARDS

Christmas is a time for love and fun,
A time to reshape souls and roots and skies,
A time to give your heart to everyone

Freely, like a rich and lavish sun,
Like a burning star to those whose lonely sighs
Show need of such a time for love and fun.

For children first, whose pain is never done,
Whose bright white fire of anguish never dies,
It's time to give your heart to every one,

That not one angel fall, to hatred won
For lack of ears to listen to her cries,
Or arms to carry him towards love and fun,

Or friends to care what happens on the run
To adult life, where joy or sadness lies.
It's time to give your heart to everyone,.

CHRISTMAS WISHES
Sure hope you don't think this greeting is late
Cuz the Spirit of Christmas we celebrate
With joy in our hearts, as we ponder the love
Our God and Father was sent from above
Jesus is the reason we create such a fuss
our Emmanuel is born, yes, God is with us
This joy can't be contained in one day only
So Christmas has 12, that we might savor it slowly!

Merry Christmas to the one I love,
Even on this day of love for all,
Remembering the love of one whose call
Redeemed all those whose hearts his love might move.
Yet only one love does my spirit prove,
Chosen in a passion like a squall,
Having in such ecstasy withal
Rejoiced in what we were created of.
In such love do we find our way outdoors,
So to be drawn to love of flesh and soul,
Traveling beyond our village green,
Moving towards the wash along our shores
As our love joins the greater love unseen,
Shining with dark passion on the whole.

They are designed to give the people you care about warm feelings toward you, or pleasant tingles, or sometimes even happy tears. Greeting cards are still the most prevalent and popular media for expressing a person feelings.


HISTORY-

Greeting cards started out as simple slips of papyrus, that were exchanged by both the Egyptians and Chinese as messages of goodwill. As the concept of greeting cards evolved, Europeans began to send them to one another for holidays such as Valentine's Day – and this occurred as early as the 1400's. Of course, these cards were handmade and expensive so not everyone could afford to send greeting cards for their holiday well-wishes.

Greeting cards really hit the mainstream in the 1850's, when commercial printing as well as the invention of the postage stamp started to allow people all over the world to send greeting cards to their loved ones. Now, greeting cards are a billion dollar business, with people purchasing and sending cards for holidays including religious celebrations, birthdays, and even just as a simple thank you or gesture of love. The two largest greeting card companies, Hallmark and American Greetings, offer cards that are perfect for any occasion, with themes and illustrations that are great for all tastes.
