Best wishes for a good year

Explanation:
the Jewish new year is a time of introspection and search for ways to improve oneself in the year to come. It is linked to Yom Kippur, the Day of Atonement, which follows ten days later. It is said that one's fate is "written down" on the New Year and "sealed" on the Day of Atonement.
