Advent approaches.

Next Sunday sees the start of the blessed feast of Advent when we prepare out hearts and minds for His coming at Christmas. Alex and I used to make an advent wreath at this season but now there are just the two of us we just put 3 purple candles and one pink one in a circle on our prayer table and light them as we say our prayers before dinner.

It's a lovely tradition to make small penances in this season to focus our souls for the coming of the Light of the World. I have been wondering what I can do and decided on this: I will not eat more than I really need at any meal during Advent.

It's just a tiny offering but it's made with love.
