HAPPINESS BY THE PAGE
Reading delivers the same mood and life
satisfaction people get from affiliations
with real�life groups. A study in Psycho-
logical Science shows that when we read,
we psychologically become part of the
community described in the narrative. That
mechanism satisfies the deeply human
need for belonging.
A SURPRISING NEW SIGN
OF HEART DISEASE
Cholesterol levels normal? That may not
save your heart: Fifty percent of those
who suffer heart attacks have normal cho-
lesterol levels. The latest research shows
that the real culprit might be the number
of cholesterol�carrying particles circulat-
ing in your bloodstream. LipoScience has
developed NMR LipoProfile, a simple blood
test that measures these particles. This in-
formation gives you a complete picture of
your cardiovascular health while empower-
ing your doctor to create a personalized
treatment for you.

God, thank you for a new year.
May everyone in our family
be willing to begin anew with
a clean slate. We know that you
are always ready to forgive us.
Help us to be willing
to forgive ourselves and
to forgive one another.
As we begin a new year,
remind us of our truest values
and our deepest desires.
Help us to live in the goodness
that comes from doing what you
want us to do. Help us to put
aside anxiety about the future
and the past, so that we might
live in peace with you now,
one day at a time.
