Trees, both real and artificial in our homes?
December 8th, 2008 . by adminHas anyone taken the time to think how weird it is, that we put up both real (and artificial) trees in our house during the holiday season?
TREES IN OUR HOUSES!!
What other part of nature will be next? Rocks and stones in our homes? Mud, dirt, or Turf grass?
Leave the outside where it should be…. OUTSIDE. Many fresh Christmas trees take 5 to 7 years to grow. Then we do we do? Cut them down, throw tinsel on them and call it a holiday.
How would you feel if someone cut off your leg, threw tinsel on it, and said it was a holiday?
I think the symbolic reference of a Christmas or holiday tree is important. So use symbolic materials to do it.. In the green way of thinking, we should use the same artificial tree very year. It is not uncommon to have an artificial tree last 10 years or more.
Do you use real or artificial? Have you tried both? I’d be interested in hearing from someone that use to use real, and then switched to artificial, or vice-versa.
Are you seriously comparing cutting a leg off to cutting of a tree? I am all for the artificial tree but lets not be stupid about it!
