Advent 2010 #1

If I were a very linear person this post would have been on the 1st of December to initiate an advent series of posts or on November 30 as an introduction to what it is I like about this season. But here it is, the 7th and I am finally posting this note. I do have a number of thoughts that would make a nice series of reflections. If there are no more posts in my Advent series then the thoughts were not as grand as I had originally thought. Here goes, Advent 2010, #1.
