Let’s get through the world this year with a playful spirit!
It’s a positive, warm message that encourages us to keep an open mind and hold on to a sense of fun even in tough times.
As a note to include when reaching out to a friend you haven’t contacted in a while, it would likely give them positivity and energy.
It also seems to convey the feeling, “We couldn’t meet last year, but I’d love to make time to see you this year.” It’s a very casual message, perfect for a close friend.
Please cherish your playful spirit and get your wonderful New Year off to a great start!
Step by step toward your dreams—wishing you a year full of fruitful achievements.
How about sending a New Year’s card with this message to someone who’s working hard toward their dreams and goals? Achieving a dream requires daily effort.
But if you keep pushing yourself, you’ll inevitably run into obstacles.
When you can’t seem to overcome those hurdles, it’s easy to feel impatient.
In moments like that, remember the words “one step at a time” and take a deep breath.
The phrase “a fruitful year” also evokes the idea that your efforts will bear fruit and your dreams will come true, so it can be very encouraging.
Wishing for a year filled with even more smiles for our family.
This is a message you’ll want to send to someone who cherishes their family.
For those who think more about their family’s happiness than their own, these words will be especially heartwarming.
When family smiles increase, the home brightens, and happy times will naturally continue.
To relatives you’re close with as families, share this phrase while wishing happiness for each other’s families.
Sending it along with a smiling family photo will heighten the sense of joy and may light the way to a wonderful future.
May everyone in the family stay healthy and keep building joyful moments together.
Staying healthy is absolutely essential for enjoying life, isn’t it? If you want to stay active and do things, you first need a healthy body and mind.
So how about sending this message as a New Year’s greeting? It’s a wish for your family to stay well, and on that foundation, to enjoy many happy times and create wonderful memories.
It’s a perfect line for relatives or family friends you’re close with.
And feel free to use it in various situations beyond New Year’s cards, too.
Wishing you a year where you can even enjoy the little mishaps.
There’s a saying, “A pinch is a chance!” That spirit is embedded in this message as well.
Small mishaps can be startling, but they’re usually things you can recover from.
If you can see them not as crises but as a spice of everyday life—opportunities to grow—you might even be able to enjoy those moments themselves.
It’s a phrase that conveys the wish for you to become someone who can enjoy them, and the desire to support you when unexpected things happen.
Try sharing it with friends who have helped one another or with teammates who share the same dream.
May this be a year where small happinesses accumulate day by day.
By piling up small moments of happiness each day, they may eventually lead to great happiness.
That’s why you might add this message to New Year’s cards.
Of course, big happiness is wonderful, but the chances to experience it are rare.
Small happiness, however, can surely be found all around us in our daily lives.
And if finding little joys becomes a habit, the time you feel happy will grow longer, and that will eventually become great joy.
Please share this message with someone precious to you, wishing them happiness.
Wishing you a year full of happiness and joy.
Both happiness and joy are abstract expressions, but that’s precisely why they resonate with anyone and make it easy to imagine the sparkle of a new year.
It’s hard to tailor a message specifically to a relative with whom you have a bit of distance.
That said, using the same boilerplate every year lacks warmth, and if you’re going to add a line, you want to choose words that truly reach the other person.
This brief message offers a flexible option for just such situations, so please feel free to make use of it.
