What a contrast! All the news reports of "Cyber Monday" and the great buying spree ... and I was just gathering thoughts together about "Waiting... awaiting... " and RS Thomas: "the meaning is in the waiting..."
What kind of Advent painting to begin? ...mulling it over whilst cleaning the bathroom...hoovering...
possibly the profile of a pregnant woman ?
For me that would symbolize new life, hope, an expectant waiting...
...a long term awaiting...
for what ? what are we really waiting and hoping for in our lives ?
...in our society ?
...in the world ?
"What am I expecting? "... this painting has just come through on a blog link:

and Ive just come across an
Advent Calendar about people in the Middle East: http://www.embraceme.org/advent-calendar
