Week 10: Christmassy Light
These Christmassy decorated displays are derived from the new Musical production 'Tinseltown Christmas' supported by UCI Drama Department. I took photos right after watching the musical show last Thursday night. The most famous and general colors for the Christmas season are justly green (Christmas tree), red (Rudolf deer's nose), and white (snow). These colors seem to be different and distinct, but the harmony of these three colors are incredibly splendid. In my memory I have experienced the previous Christmas days, my father always decorated the Christmas tree with twinkling Christmassy lights, bells, and stars; in addition, my mother and elder sister used to prepare for the most delicious food and deserts for our family. The mood has been warm, peaceful, joyful, genial, and happy all the time. Judging by my personal memory, I truly believe that the Christmassy lights are the best tool of conveying the feeling of happiness, impression, delight, and love to everyone. Besides, these Christmassy lights play a meaningful role of reminding the childlike innocence in adults' mundane lives. While staring at these Christmassy decorated lights, I could realize the significance of the light itself by passages: 'there is nothing without light' and 'we can't imagine the life without light.' Although we do not recognize how important the light is for our life due to the fact that light is everywhere nowadays, light is indispensable for our daily life. Just like the Christmassy lights naturally lead us to invaluable things, I hope we ruminate of the value of light's existence and appreciate for it in our everyday moment. Lastly, I wish and pretty sure that the Christmassy lights will enrich our life, embrace and heal people with a hurt.
Merry Christmas, Everyone.
