This time of year is about the fun of family, so in addition to opening the gifts on Christmas surrounded by family and friends, there is other activities that can be done together for the family to enjoy. In this case it is decorating the tree. You can make a theme, or go crazy and shove all the ornaments and trinkets you can on it. However, doing it together as a family can bring people closer together. Each ornament brings a memory and when you all take turns placing the ornament it gives people the opportunity to remember the past and the love in them. Each year you can add a new ornament to the tree to represent the year and the life you all lived together in that year. Basically the tree can be and should be in my opinion a coming together moment.
Final Thought: The tree represents something. It can represent the path from earth to heaven with the star on the top. Christmas trees may represent the memories and love shared and passed on from year to year. A Christmas tree represents an aspect of Christmas that all families can share. So feel free to get a tree (fake or real) and use it to come together.
