Christmas Tree
Prompt: The Christmas Tree

Lessons from a Christmas Tree:
Be a light in the darkness.
We all fall over sometimes.
You can never wear too much glitter.
Bring joy to others.
Sparkle and twinkle as often as possible.
It's okay to be a little tilted.
Jane Lee Logan
What do you think this poem-quote means? And/or, what does being a little tilted mean to you?

I often feel a little tilted 😂 but haven’t expressed the feeling in those terms before. I might say: off kilter, out of sorts, unbalanced or just different. I enjoyed reading the lessons from the point of view of a Christmas tree, they are all things to aspire to.

1. I hope I have been a light in the darkness sometimes for the ones I love who might have needed a guiding light. Certainly there have been people who have been a light in the darkness for me.

2. We are all allowed to fall over sometimes as we walk on shaky ground.

3. Some people can carry off wearing flashy jewellery and bling and for those who can then too much glitter is never enough. Personally I don’t wear much in the way of glitter, I hope my personality shinesfor me.

3.It doesn’t take much to bring joy to others, often a smile and a greeting. It’s a wonderful lesson to take from that Christmas tree.

4.I’ll try to be a little more sparkly and twinkly! But I can’t promise.

Merry Christmas
