Should we wish a bad new year to our enemies ?
First, it would change from wishing a happy new year, and it would also avoid posting yet another best wishes message to people we don't really know who they are and what they need for 2006, even if we like them. For instance, does posting an "happy new year" message to this blog make sens ? (who read this blog ?)
The idea has come from my CEO who has responded this way to many traditional impersonal greetings emails he received for the new year:
Nothing is easier than sending an email message or a SMS to the whole address book, or sending a post to a blog, wishing everybody a very happy new year 2006 for them and their family. To who ? Which family ? What's about the person who have no concubine and no parents because they've just died last december... ?
What's the sense for such a message if we don't really know the person who will receive it ? and if we don't personalize our message and produce an effort to make it ? What will be the sens for this action for the rising generation which is accommodated to the easy broadcast communication mode ?
Wishing a bad new year to all our enemies is quite easier ! As they are enemies, we don't have any time to spend to personalize any wishes. Maybe, for a "good" enemy, we should take time to make a strong message... But in this case, we might prefer spending time to write dedicated messages to our friends.
Based on this reflexion, I'm trying to make dedicated wishes to my friends, wishing them for 2006 something personal and different for each of them.
