2010 will be a very special year for me. This year I will turn 50, which means that I will be closing 30 years of hard work. All I hope and wish for myself is another 30 wonderful years of successful work and fulfilment.

All throughout my life, even when I was in my 20s, I have never felt content with the status quota. I’ve never felt like “This is it, I’ve found peace at last”. I have always felt that I had so much to establish in life. My goal has been to conquer the world and make the best out of life. As I get older, I want to explore everything there is to know. When I turn 60 or 70, I won’t feel that my best years are already past, and that all there is left to do is retire, spend the time with my grandchildren or play cards with friends.

Whenever people ask me when is the right time to retire and travel the world, I always say I live a good life right now, I don’t need to retire for that. Neither my children, nor my husband or my parents ever stopped me from achieving a goal. I married at age 20, went to college during the evenings, started my business in Israel and then my family and I travelled the world. I did all that and raised my children with the help of a wonderful and supporting husband.

Even if people will not be praising my accomplishments years after I die, the most important for me is to know that I explored and fulfilled everything in life. I have had the opportunity to love, breathe, feel pain, be excited, explore, and I have all the right reasons to get up in the morning. That is most significant!

I consider my biggest achievement to be the love I have found with my husband and the beautiful family we have created.

For many people, the start of life is connected to the start of a relationship or a family. If you have reached a point in your life where materially, it appears that you have everything, but romantically and emotionally you are dissatisfied, then perhaps it’s time to do something about it and join a Jewish Matchmaking service.

My Global Match is expanding locations, so that no matter where you are in the United States, we can help you find your perfect Jewish match.

Starting March 2010, we will have offices in Florida and New York.

If you are interested in making a big change in your life for 2010 or if you have single Jewish friends who are looking for a serious relationship and eventually marriage and children, it’s time to tell them about us. The first 100 Jewish singles at each branch will be registered FOR FREE. New singles can be any age, from 20 to 100. Our only requirement is that every person who signs up be serious and decent people who sincerely wish to get married.

I certainly hope that each and every one of you have big plans and dreams for 2010. The only way to achieve goals and fulfill dreams is by making decisions. Nobody stops you from fulfilling your dreams. The only person who can stop you is yourself.

Think about what’s important to you. Think about what you wish for. Prepare a plan and go for it in full speed ahead. I know that’s what I will do.

Good Luck to all of us. May 2010 be an amazing year and I hope that all our dreams would come true.

Amen!

HAPPY NEW YEAR
