I've always preferred the original "muddle through" but I'm very glad the *original* original version ("It may be your last") got replaced; there's a limit to how downbeat I want to be.

It struck me only in late middle-age how large a fraction of Christmas songs are downright mournful in tune even if the lyrics are about the Good News. For every major-key "Jingle Bells" or "Deck the Halls" there's a minor-key "God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen" or "We Three Kings". (And don't get me started on "In the Bleak Midwinter", a lovely song but a veritable dirge.)

All the best to you and your readers!

The "agents of their own confounding" appear to have their own dark days ahead. Let's enjoy the light!! And thanks go out to the Blogfather for his manifold blessings of information and insight and perspective, and wishing many very merry days to us all!

I remember this from last year, and bless you for bringing it back! I too am encouraged by how far we seem to have come since last Christmas. And yes, many prayers will be needed -- prayers of thanks and petition for mercy and goodness for our country.

Speaking of thanks -- I'm so thankful for Instapundit and for your Substack! Merry Christmas!

And thank you for this post. (Speaking personally for a moment, looking at and acknowledging the wins is how I keep depression in its box.)
