I KNOW the first Sunday of Advent has been and gone but the first day of December, in our case also the first day of summer, reminds me of those old-school advent calendars my mother used to trot out. There were never chocolates or sweets or hidden treasures in our calendar, just a window to open each and every day on the countdown to Christmas. It was an exercise in patience and restraint. Hmmm, a life lesson I’d like to see a little more of in this hurly burly world of high expectations and immediate gratification. I won’t go on, it’ll start to sound all bah-humbuggy.
