Counting down the days...

It's just about two weeks until Christmas and already the strain is beginning to tell! Each year poses new challenges... The pressure of the commercialism, the rising tide of excitement at home, keeping within a budget!
The hardest part of the season is maintaining a focus upon the real meaning of the season and allowing the natural sequence of the advent calendar to guide our journey into this most blessed and holy time.
You almost have to make a conscious choice to turn off the TV and retreat, to simplify, simplify, simplify!
