When
a new year begins, we have new dreams and hopes. When the year
ends, we realize we didn't do all we wanted to. Time flies so
fast that when we least expect, today has already become past,
so let's not forget to show our friends and family that we love
them. Let's put our sorrows and pain behind and let kindness
and love abound. Let's celebrate life, friendship and love. Let's
enjoy life as best as we can because each moment is never the
same. Let's seize time with our families all together, because
these moments won't last forever. And never wait until tomorrow
to do what we can do today. Soon our last chance may be gone
because time never waits.
May
the coming year be full of hope, happiness and love to everyone.

"A New Year is here once
more,
With its visions of future promise.
The old ways passed by,
And a fresh start, there for the taking.
All is optimism;
Gloom is gone!
Looking forward to the innocent blossoming of spring
Blooming into a youthful, balmy summer.
But the world does not change.
That beautiful vision of new cleanness
Comes from within;
From the hope for a better world,
And a desire to let the old ways go."

People
celebrate the coming of a new year with happiness and joy. It's
a time for love and peace for the whole world. In Brazil, our
tradition is to dress up in white on the New Year's Eve because
white stands for peace, which is what most people want in the
coming year. Some people like to use yellow and red too as the
yellow stands for richness and gold and red for passion and love.
While Christmas is a family event, the new year is a big party
celebration. Summer begins on December 23rd, so many people travel
to the seaside to spend the 31st. Every year there is a beautiful
fireworks show at the famous Copacabana beach in Rio de Janeiro.
It gathers people from all over the country.
