I would like to wish everyone, no matter how you end up reading this page, a merry Christmas, hopefully spent in serenity with your family and a truly fantastic 2012! May your wishes and hopes for the year to come all come true. In particular I would like to make a special wish for all the people, especially the children and the elderly, who were affected by the terrible earthquake that hit Japan last March. I sincerely hope they will soon find serenity and be able to live a normal life again.
