Lieve mensen,
 Ik wil jullie en mezelf 
zo min mogelijk onthouden.
 Wat is er mooier dan nog meer geluk, nog meer 
verrassingen?
 Daar moet dit bericht een belangrijke bijdrage aan 
leveren!!
 Hopelijk werkt het!
 En anders kun je troost vinden bij 
het idee dat je je echte geluk toch
 bij jezelf moet zoeken.
 Veel geluk
 Peter
