12/19/2013 0 Comments Not Today, Just Not Into ItDedicated as one might be, there does come times when one is just not into something. Not today...not at the moment. As I am taking this journey through Advent, sitting in meditation or observing traditions and expectations as we anticipate the Big Day, I sometimes feel like I'm really not getting it. I just want to ignore the whole thing. Anticipation can be wearing. When I find myself slipping into this retrograde of emotions, I stop myself.
