The holiday season is upon us, and nothing says ‘Christmas‘ quite like the twinkling lights and ornaments adorning a beautiful holiday tree.
Depending on your culture and family of origin, Christmas trees (and all the trimmings) can represent a lot of things.
In my house growing up, the tree was aligned with Christian tradition and the birth of Jesus (the light of the world).
We always had the same angel on top, to representing the Angel Gabriel and the Star of Bethlehem that guided the Wise Men. The angel is from my dad’s childhood, and my parents still use it!
No matter what the tree represents in your home, it’s always a central icon of the holiday season, representing joy, celebration, and the coming together of family and communities.
