After the holidays, it still stands there: the Christmas tree, with a few bare branches and that one last garland you forgot. Once it brought light and coziness; now it pricks you every time you walk past. Throwing it away almost feels like betrayal, but also like a small relief. As the tree leaves the house, weโre not just clearing away needlesโweโre making room for the new year: fresher, emptier, and full of possibilities.

Hope is like a tree: invisibly strong in its roots, and visibly alive in its crown, what is deeply anchored dares to grow toward the light.
