Happy New Year!
<p>I’d like to wish everyone a happy, healthy, and prosperous New Year.</p>
<p>The Japanese greet each other in the new year by saying “<em>Akemashite omedetou gozaimasu</em>,” which means, literally, “Congratulations, it started [or opened],” but is usually translated as “Happy New Year.”</p>
<p>I read an article recently that suggested New Year’s Day is just another day, why treat it differently from any other day? I resent that kind of thinking. I need my special days.</p>
<p>Speaking of special, did you notice that 12/31/23 can be broken down to read 123123? If that is not the sign of an auspicious day, I don’t know what is. And to my way of thinking, if the end of one year is special, the beginning of the next must be extra special.</p>
