Here's to the leaders, that they may show us the ways to live, and the ways not to!
Here's to the hand sanitizer, that it may wash our hands clean of that which makes us ill.

Here's to each other, that we may prosper together, apart, each in our own homes yet hopelessly and boundlessly connected!
Here's to the year behind us, that it may inspire us to live our fullest lives.
Here's to the next one, that we may be renewed!
In happiness, in love, in success and laughter,
And in opportunity not to regain what we had before, but to create that which we never had before!
