While all the universe and my family are still sleeping, I will walk among the red and blue twinkle-lights of the living room, to sit and gaze upon the pretty white angel atop the tree and say silent prayers, remembering what was good in the world and why I was brought here to remember.

About This Quote

The beautiful red and blue lights of the Christmas tree twinkle like the stars in the sky. It is a place to reflect on our lives and remember what was good in our lives. We are brought here to remember what was good in the world and why we were brought here to remember. We are all meant to be born into this life, even when there is pain and sadness. We are meant to look back at the good times in our life and reflect on them, because these memories are why we are here.
