and then it was the forth

There is something very special to light the last candle on the fourth Sunday of Advent , it carries a feeling of completeness. But at the same time it has a melancholy notion, signaling that the arrival of Christmas is now imminent and we have to switch gears. Some years I find it difficult to trade anticipation for the real thing, but I had so many celebrations during Advent this year, that the transition into Christmas will be alright.
