As a
prelusive gesture on this propitious occasion which is an incunabula and
inchoation of my traverse with you in this year, I
would like to say I am blithesome, rident and filled with mirth at the mere
thought of being part of not just a klatsch or coterie but a truly
pulchritudinous mishpocha. To be able to meet with you today, was once a desiderium but now, it's more like a sweven that is
sooth.
Since I didn't have time to prepare a speech, this address would most likely come across as a prayer from the stables of an aspiring gnomist for each one of us in this family.
For every
dyad, I pray that anon, each of our homes will be filled with more vinous and
romantic fondness in ever increasing votive and troth.
May
our bond not conk out or evanesce but rather, it will effloresce and flourish
viridescently.
May every
delitescent grace and gifting come alive as we become the echt portrayal of the
Creator's masterpiece.
May
our peace all through this year be smoother than a saunter through a xyst.
Concerning
your goals, may you be endowed with axiomatic chutzpa difficult for every
pusillanimous and horripilating crapehanger to gloze over or grok.
This
year, I previse you walking into the realm of thalassic abundance and opulence,
annulling every flak and wanion be it from progenitors or otherwise.
May
this be the year you demesne and come into dignity. On meeting you, kings and
nobles will agnize and tutoyer.
May our
transit be peregrine; pre or post our end of year meeting as we thank God that
not a skosh of His promises went unfulfilled.
As
for all the naysayers in your life, they are fast becoming fusty.
By
virtue of being bel-esprit and a specter to your adversaries, may they become
exiguous as their gatherings become pell-mell, higgledy piggledy, arsy-varsy
and star-crossed. May their meeting places be rubricated for destruction as they slubber into discombobulation, garboil and subjugation.
While
your enemies cede and receive their comeuppance, may they become gapeseed as
you sit to tiffin, slake and degust a toothsome outlay of kickshaw et al. They’ll
still be peckish, panivorous and resorting to rejectamenta due to maw while you'll
have an excess of both chow and pabulum.
My
God will deliver you from flibbertigibbets, fussbudgets, coxcombs,
whippersnappers and mythomanes.
May this year end well for us all in Jesus name.
