Advent Calendar
I am struck by the profound symbolism in ordinary things.
I purchased my first advent calendar this year. I was not concerned with forgetting Christmas but instead I was drawn by the novelty.
The calendar consisted of 24 windows, each concealing a piece of chocolate with a symbol imprinted on it. I soon discovered that each symbol had a profound meaning which intertwined with the events of the day.
On day 14 I received a bell shaped chocolate. Later that day I was compelled to honk at some one who cut me off. I also heard a new song on the radio.
Today, I was to receive a wreath on on chocolate - but the chocolate was missing. I do not know what this means.
