Flying down that slippery slope from Thanksgiving to Christmas! That hectic, harried time of year!
Nature was just showing us the splendor of autumn, and tomorrow begins the first week of Advent. As we light the purple candle, we think of Hope--hope in the sense of expectation, awaiting the arrival of our hearts' Christ, our spiritual selves.
While we are waiting, we can slow down and allow ourselves to live in the present, a Zen moment of mindfulness.
