A year to dash through with laughter!
Let’s make the new year one filled with endless laughter! These words convey that feeling.
The phrase “dash through” overlaps with the image of a horse running swiftly and gallantly.
Even when we live each day with all our might, it’s far better to spend it with a smile than with a pained expression, isn’t it? Whether you’re studying hard, immersing yourself in lessons, or of course playing with friends, try using these words with the resolve to keep smiling—words that encourage not only your friends but yourself as well.
A year that starts with a smile and ends with a smile!
It’s often said that the first and last impressions of a year greatly influence how we feel about it as a whole.
This message encourages you to spend both the beginning and the end of the year with a smile, so you can look back and think it was a joyful year.
Starting with a smile makes you want to keep that smile going, and ending with a smile brings back strong, happy memories from the year.
Receiving this as a message inspires you to be mindful of your smile and move forward with a positive mindset.
Wishing for a year that ends with a smile.
Just as a lot happened over the past year, the new year will surely bring joys, sorrows, and challenges.
This message acknowledges that context while wishing that, in the end, we can close the year with a smile.
May everything go well—that’s the sentiment it seems to carry.
Why not add these words to a New Year’s card for someone dear and wish for happiness in the days ahead? Your kindness will come through and is sure to bring a smile.
Wishing you a peaceful year filled with smiles.
Exciting, heart-pounding days full of ups and downs can be fun, but some people may prefer to spend calm, uneventful days.
How about adding this short message to your New Year’s card? The word “smile” in this message evokes an image of someone gently smiling in a comfortable, reassuring moment.
With a wish that your loved one will enjoy peaceful, happy times, consider including this message with your New Year’s greeting.
May this year be filled with lots of blooming smiles.
A smile is something that fills you and those around you with happiness, and its brightness is often compared to a flower.
This message carries a warm tone, calling on you to let those flowers of smiles bloom fully in the coming year.
The phrase “a lot” is a key point—not just blooming, but in abundance—evoking the image of a beautiful flower field.
It gives the impression of a colorful expression of the wish for you to spend each day with a positive outlook.

Let’s make it a year where smiles spread in a chain!
Happiness circulates: when you smile, a joyful feeling wells up, and that feeling brings out even more smiles.
This message carries the hope that such happiness will lead to even greater happiness throughout the year.
Smiles ripple within ourselves, but our own smile can also spark someone else’s, reflecting a spirit of mutual support.
It conveys a grand kindness—smiles that begin with you spreading to others, and from there widening until an even broader circle is filled with smiles.
With a horse-like speed in both play and study!
When we think of horses, we picture them running at incredible speed.
This phrase conveys the idea of tackling both play and study at that same fast pace.
But horses also sometimes walk slowly, don’t they? Moving quickly is great, but it can also be good to take things at a slower pace now and then.
Depending on the situation, why not include this phrase with the intention of working hard like a horse—sometimes speeding up, sometimes slowing down as needed?
