One of the biggest symbols of the Christmas season is the Christmas Tree. We see them everywhere: stores, businesses and of course each other’s houses. Some of us, like myself, have a plastic tree that we use every year. We string on the lights, add the decorations, etc.
However, other people go and buy real trees. Personally I don't like real trees. In order to keep them healthy you have to keep them watered. The lights on the tree start to heat up and can cause the tree to catch fire.The needles fall off and cover your floor in sap. When they start to die the tree begins to look dry and the branches start to fall off.
Sure the trees look pretty if they are well taken care of but so do plastic trees. There are even realistic looking plastic trees. Don't be a hallmark character and assume that a real tree symbolizes “the true spirit of Christmas.”
