Today is December 30th and the new year, 2009, is looming ahead.
And I ask again. What will the new year bring me.
Will it continue to bring me good health and fortunes, and what will the new year bring others, especially the poor and not as fortunate as I am.
Will I live trough 2009 and see the new year 2010 enter? Only God knows.
I have (3) brothers in Sweden, and two of them are very, very sick.
I also have one brother here in USA who brought me here from Sweden in 1956.
Today he is severly crippled and moves around in a wheelchair.
What is in store for my family and me?
I have been sick also in the past, five weeks in a coma, but a power I do not understand healed me. That was 30 years ago and I ask myself.
Will I continue to be healthy?
Will my company continue to grow and to prosper?
I sinserely pray that it will. Not for my sake, but for my employees sake, and theire families who depend upon me providing them a paycheck and security.
They, my employees, made me. I did not make them and the reward of my labor is due to them.
And so I bow my head and pray that all good things will continue to come my way.
And to all others, friends and foes alike.
May we all have learned from the past, and apply it to the future.
And to you, our new president to be.
May you be guided by a power from above that I do not understand.
