Christmas is one of the magical events in the year when everyone especially children are looking forward to celebrating. It is the one season when people decorate their houses with Christmas ornaments and buy gifts to give to their loved ones. As the Christmas song goes, this is the season to be jolly. There are many symbols that one can associate to this festive occasion. One is Christmas lights that symbolizes the stars that lights the way towards Jesus’ manger. Another is the Christmas tree. There are other things that remind us of Christmas but having a Christmas tree is the best reminder of this magical occasion. The idea of decorating the tree with ornaments is one of the best ways to spend time with your family. However, life is not always magical or jolly.
There are times when we experience something that we do not wish to experience such as losing someone we love. Coping up with this kind of experience is difficult. With the holidays nearing, attending memorials is not one of the ways one would want to celebrate it. However, we always have to strive to move forward in life whatever difficult situation we are experiencing. No matter how difficult it is to see your loved one in the crematorium, there is always life after death and one should appreciate what it means to live life to the fullest. As mentioned, spending Christmas without your loved one is not one of the ideas that you would want to consider but when events such as this happens, you would just have to make do.
Changing ones perspective is not as easy as one would think but a simple thought can change a lot. For the bereaved, another way to change the atmosphere would be to giveaway Christmas tree seedlings to guests as a form of reminder to the dead and life itself. This is a great gift idea to give to your guests especially since the Yuletide season is just near the corner. It not only symbolizes Christmas but also life as the tree gives us clean air to breathe. This is one great way to celebrate life or the life lived of our loved ones.
