Dear God,

For New Year's all I really want is time to write, inspiration to write, and the wisdom to understand why I am compelled to write and how it fits into my life.

Thank you for this past year. It made me really happy as being alive almost always does.

Please look after my family, friends and loved ones, please help them in their struggles, please assist me to accept whatever fate is written for me.

Thank you again.

--Brian
