Dear Santa Claus ,
You already know who I am . I am writing to you for a couple of reasons this year .
First , I need to remind myself of believing . Of believing that you exist ; of believing that Christmas is a great , jolly time of year ; of simply believing . Nowadays , it is difficult to believe in anything . You must see that , don ’ t you ? I can easily suffocate in that if I allow it . I am not sure why it is difficult , not fully . You must have a better idea . Please tell me you do . At least that way , there would be at least one of us .
One of my wishes for this Christmas , for any Christmas really , is that you help people believe . Not make them gullible , naïve , stupid ; make them believe again , hope , keep on having that heart and spark that one would see more as a little kid but not take much note of . I sometimes wish I didn ’ t take does and other simple little ( sometimes not so little ) things for granted … but then again , I would most likely have needed to know of how it would be like as one grows up …
… I am not so sure that would have been better …
Secondly , I would like to point out , that for the most part I have been a good person . According to people , I could easily be way worse . ( I think that applies to almost everyone though ). I will remind you do that I do not do big illegal activities ; or such ( jaywalking should not count ) … I deserve better than coal . You cannot really disagree with me on that one .
However , I do not ask for much . I have the basic necessities I need and more . I have a loving family , close friends , and more . I cannot really think of much to ask for … except for a roadmap for my life … I still can ’ t get over that fear . It would be bittersweet to have it . I would
