Advent

This small (maybe “tiny” is the appropriate adjective) corner of the blogosphere has been titled Reflections.  Typically when we think of reflecting, we think of taking time and energy to think about and process aspects of life and events within life that have passed.  Therefore, the term Reflections, we would reckon, carries with it the implication of time. We mark the passing of time with devices such as watches and clocks, essentials on our desks such as calendars and planners, and electronics in our hands such as a BlackBerry or other “smartphone.”  The passing of time and the reflection on time gone by is important enough to us in the Western World that we mark this passing every moment of every day.
