Wishing you lots of wonderful things in the New Year.
Last year was full of wonderful things, wasn’t it? This phrase lets you look back on your memories that way.
The New Year is a time to set resolutions and wishes, so it’s also important to reflect on what kind of year it was.
With this phrase, you can reminisce about last year while expressing the hope that those lovely days will continue this year too.
And if you spent happy times with that person, it will also convey the wish to share more wonderful experiences together.
May the new year bring lots of good things to both of us.
I think there are many things we want to wish for in the New Year.
But if we bundle them all together, they might be summed up in this single phrase.
The words “good things” carry the hope that the year will be more fulfilling and that a brighter future will come.
As you wish for many good things to happen for yourself and for the other person, try adding this simple phrase to your New Year’s card.
Just seeing the words “for both of us” evokes a sense of closeness, like companions sharing joys and hardships, and it can become a source of support for the heart.
Kick off the new year with a smile!
It’s a lovely message that brings to mind someone dashing across the finish line with a smile.
It’s filled with great expectations for the new year and conveys a sense of excitement that can hardly wait.
Some people look forward to the New Year, and some don’t, but when a bright message like this arrives on a New Year’s card, it naturally brings a smile, doesn’t it? For students preparing for entrance exams, the phrase “starting dash” might spark the motivation to push hard now and pull ahead.
May you find many joys in your everyday life.
There are joys that everyone feels, and there are joys that you only notice when you become consciously aware of them.
Depending on how you look at things, your life may be overflowing with joy.
This phrase is a wonderful message that helps you realize that.
Add it to your New Year’s card and encourage others to find not only the big, obvious joys on the surface, but also the small joys that are buried and hidden.
Just by doing that, the new year is sure to become richer and more fulfilling.
May last year’s memories become this year’s strength.
When you hear the words “memories of last year,” what comes to mind? Failure, regret, joy—everyone has different memories.
This short message is a wish for you to draw strength from those memories and do your best this year.
Even if your memories are of failures or regrets, experience is a treasure—if you think of it as something necessary for success, won’t you feel empowered? Add this line to your New Year’s card and try to convey the feeling of wishing someone the best in a positive, encouraging way.
May every moment of each day become a wonderful memory in the future.
Looking back, even the smallest moments can become memories, can’t they? It’s fun to reminisce with someone you spent those times with—saying, “Remember how it was back then?” Of course, there are also times when we quietly savor memories on our own.
This is a message filled with the wish that, with the new year, each day will become even more fulfilling.
If this sentence were added to a New Year’s card, it would leave you feeling refreshed.
These are words that can inspire the feeling, “Starting today, I’ll face each day with a renewed spirit.”
Wishing you a year full of smiles and energy.
It’s a positive phrase that evokes a bright and joyful year.
Being able to spend your days with a smile and plenty of energy is a happiness anyone can appreciate, so it’s suitable for everyone.
The scene this phrase brings to mind will differ from person to person, but it will always include a version of yourself who feels fulfilled and content.
Add this line to your New Year’s greeting with the hope that their year will be like that.
If you’re sending it to someone with a family, you might add “with your family” at the beginning.
