I believe there should be a Congressional investigation into this rather

I think I go along with Solomon, the wisest man in the world, who said,

done is that which shall be done: and there is no new thing under the 
sun" (Ecclesiastes 1:9 KJV). 

This so-called "New Year," is simply the "Old Year" repackaged for the
unsuspecting. For some people it will take six months into the "New

People make New Year's resolutions, which are simply the old resolutions

that sat upon the throne said, Behold, I make all things new. And he 
said unto me, Write: for these words are true and faithful" (Revelation 
21:5 KJV). 

I will leave the creation of "new," to the one who knows how to make all
things new.
