Truth here for sure: “Every passing pessimistic remark we make leads to apathetic and defeatist behavior.” The opposite is also true, a reminder that the Creator spoke into existence a once-perfect physical universe. This year let’s tap deeply into the power and glory of the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and speak into existence whatever is true, noble, right, pure, lovely, and admirable. "If anything is excellent or praiseworthy, think about such things” (Philippians 4:8). Say them out loud too! And may the words of our mouths and meditations of our hearts "be pleasing in your sight, Lord, my Rock and my Redeemer” (Psalm 19:14). Happy New Year, TT and thank you for your good words.
R for repentance, resolve, rectitude, and redemption. H for hope.
OMG!!! I have been so far removed from Jeff and “The Dude” - it’s been a helluva year. Right. Let me tell you, my brother, I am going to get a 7 figure deal for my new novel. According to my agent. I promise to support your Stack appropriately.
That's great Quill, congratulations! We could certainly use the support, but that's hardly the point, what an amazing accomplishment! Going back to the theme of this New Years post: all the laborious years of research and work that when into writing it were seeds you've previously planted, and now it sounds like they're going to bring you prosperity. Kudos!
My brother. I have been writing this for more than three years. I am hoping it does for the “Scamdemic” what Upton Sinclair did with “The Jungle” or Tom Wolfe in “Bonfire of the Vanities.”
Just said a prayer for your success, Mr. Cross. I know just how much blood, sweat, & tears goes into projects like yours: it’s something you pour your life and heart into. You must, because if you do not it, will not be worthy of changing the world as you describe.
Once published, I hope it shakes the world to its foundations just like “Jungle” & “Vanities”. I am rooting for you!
We are 15 minutes from the most consequential year in human history. I wish you nothing but green lights. But… let’s stay in communication. To do our best to divine Truth.
Blessings to all and everyone! My name starts with I. Integrity may be? After 7 years, this week I saw the narcissus I got from a late friend are blooming. The first Camelia opened last weekend. The new year will bring flowers indeed. May they all be white ! May all the blood shed end. May peace finally reign. May there be lots of sunshine on our faces! May everyone adopt a dog and take good care of them. Mine is gently snoring next to me!
Thank you for posting this, it has forever been my philosophy - "If we are resigned to the belief that the parasite class have everything in place and cannot be stopped, then we will, absolutely, will that reality into existence. Every passing pessimistic remark we make, leads to apathetic and defeatist behavior, followed by our actions manifesting in everyday life." - Nicholas Creed
TriTorch, It has and will always be, my credo. Positive is as positive does. Plant flowers or whatever it is that makes your heart skip a beat - Muwah!
Happy New Year brother! My name is Ted and I choose the word ‘triumph’ because the Remnant is arising and we are taking no prisoners, but welcome those who convert to following the Lord Jesus Christ.
Now,…“Let’s march straight into the mouth of Hell and start pulling teeth!”

The book by David Bryan is a must-read for anyone interested in spiritual warfare, as it details how this family was protected by the Lord against powers and principalities unseen, resulting in the untimely death of the infamous Anton LaVey (satanist who found out too late that the Lord protects his children).
We are still here. In 2025. These MOTHERFUCKERS haven’t killed us yet!
Quill, I added something to the ending of the article, check it out. It ain’t over til it’s over! And we are not dead yet!
Choice defies.. do you understand that those two words call into play 3000 years of philosophical debate?
Of course. What choice did i have but to include that?
I luv you, man!
of course, let's go.
Amen, Quill!
I will be damned (I just might be!) if I let the peckers get the better of me. We are, Indeed, alive and thriving!
Happy New Year, and may 2025 be filled with blessings and joy.

This is an amazing comment, thank you for this Reasonable Horses
Starting 2025 with a stunning appropriate image. Blessings.
Cheers dude! Just slip those seeds under the door. 👍
=)
Forgive me. “Sleep those seeds?”
"Slip those seeds", it's a joke based on your avatar. Have you had one too many white Russians this New Years? ^_^

WOWW congratulations! Please let us know where and when
I plan to reward all the folks on Substack who have sustained me these past years. Like TT. They are doing THE WORK. And I am grateful.

Wonderful comment, thank you, ‘Integrity’ (good choice).
Hope smiles from the threshold of the year to come, whispering ‘it will be happier’.” ―Alfred Lord Tennyson
Happy New Year Ingrid. Integrity is good. We have to keep that.
I chose resilience - which right now is a struggle but I hope to keep striving
What a great way to start the New Year!! Thank you for the simple, but very effective words of wisdom!😊👍
Thanks Chris, best to you and your family in 2025 and beyond!
Thank you so much TriTorch! The very best to you and your family too! Love your work!❤️
thank you for this- the first words to read this fresh new morning.
I will try to be "resilient" and plant some sunflowers and zinnias everywhere - first I thought acorns would be fun, oak is nice quality wood.
I am grateful for substack friends.
Thanks Rosemary, that flower combination sounds beautiful. Resiliency will get us through
I am very grateful to have you here
I’m going with Justice. Happy New Year Torch.
Good one, same, Justin

Thanks - Nicholas sure has a way with words - and same to you and those you hold dear, Depswah!
TriTorch, It has and will always be, my credo. Positive is as positive does. Plant flowers or whatever it is that makes your heart skip a beat - Muwah!
A for attitude! Always keep a positive attitude:)
Loved the story about the magician and the parrot!
Hallelujah! Yes! This! Thanks 😊 Happy New Year 🎉
Soooo Plant flowers, Laugh, and stay off cruise ships...
Haha yep if you ever board a cruise ship with a magic show and see a parrot on the captain’s shoulder, do an about face and unbaord it.
…and also give a positive word that starts with ‘T’, in your case. *nudge nudge*
Some of the best ever! Blessings
My L word is light and I shall plant legumes.
Thank you Lisa. ‘Light’ is one of my favorite words. And legumes are delicious

Same to you, ‘Triumph’! (Perfect for you)
Now lets all become dentists and grab some pliars!

If only there were enough hours in the day, I’d definitely read that. Maybe one day
It is an excellent start to a new beginning. They will come at us hard, and we will not waver. Cheers, all, and A Happy New Year!
You too liam, and nope, let them come, we will not waver
