25 DAYS AND COUNTING
December 01, 2010I 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.
