Dear Santa Clause,
I don't want something specific, but I wish to people all around the world to be healthy and live a better life they do already. I wish for my family and friends to be happy and healthy and never face really hard times alone. I wish for that one friend of mine to get a better relationship with her father.
The Christmas miracle
It was December 24th. I was the only person, sorry the only ghost in this old house. The first owner of the house left 10 years ago. I'll tell you what happened before he left. His name was Jack. He had a girlfriend Mary. They were together and were ready to get married because Mary was pregnant. They married and Mary gave birth on December 20th. The baby was a girl. Doctors said the baby would die. Jack and Mary were so sad. After a few days, on December 23 the doctors said that the baby was fine and would live. On December 25, they returned home with their baby and celebrated Christmas. Now they live with their child in New York.
A sudden visit
It was Christmas Eve. My brother and I were setting the table and my mum was cooking. My dad was out tor bring some wood for thr fire. Suddenly, we were heard the doorbell. My mum opened the door and she started talking to someone. I went next to her and I saw a girl, like me, about the same age. The girl wanted some money or food. My mum was thinking about asking the girl to come in, but I didn't think about it and directly said it! My mum smiled at me and told the girl that we had a lot of food for 5 people.
The girl came in the house and we exchanged names. Her name was Mina and I started talking to her and we had fun. When we started to eat, she ate like she hadn't eaten for days. After the dinner, we had to open the presents and I gave her my present. She was so happy. But it was 11 o'clock, and she had to return to her house, so I said goodbye to her and my mum said to Mina, "Our house is always open for you".
Once upon a time, there were two friends. This boy, Tom, lived in Paris and the girl, Lisa, lived in Greece. But Lisa did not have a house. She lived in a hotel and had decided to buy a house in Paris. Lisa went to Tom every Christmas because she had no family and he was her best friend.
So, last Christmas, Lisa went to Paris to see Tom and spend the holidays together. She went without telling him because they hadn't had time to talk, but when she went to his house to find him, his house was for sale because Tom had ieft. Lisa did not know anything and as soon as she found out, she was very upset. She was told Tom had had an accident on his bike on the road, and he hadn't survived. Christmas was never the same for Lisa after that.
It was a Friday night and Christmas Eve was coming soon. The town was full of decorations but there were no people outside. The city was silent, except for one corner. There was some light piano music, which was coming from a homeless man. His piano was very old and rusty, his clothes were dirty but he was playing the piano very well.
I decided to be brave and invite him to my home for food. After we ate, I got his piano fixed as a surprise. When he saw it, 'Thank you', he suddenly said and he gave me a weird looking watch. As I looked at it, the man disappeared. I was very shocked and I began searching for him. He was nowhere to be seen, so I decided to check that watch. I changed the batteries but when I tried setting the time, the time started running very quickly. When I had finished, the sky had turned a very weird colour, a mix of red and blue. Nothing was moving except me. Time had stopped working. I explored the town, trying to find a way to make time start again but it was pointless.
'Hey you!' someone suddenly said from the sky. 'Are you playing with time again? Oh! Who are you, and how did you got that watch?'
'A homeless man gave it to me'. I said.
The voice was very angry and kept shouting the name ‘Jonathan’. I had so many questions. The voice offered me a lot of money for leaving the watch on the floor but I refused. 'You sure are different huh? What do you think about the secret of Christmas?'
That caught me off guard so I accepted his offer. The voice continued, 'In the centre of this world, inside a cave that actually has oxygen inside the ocean, there is a holy fire, the spirit of Christmas. It is responsible for all the good and the bad things that happen at Christmas. If you find this flame, you will become the famous God of Christmas and will rule this planet for this time of the year. If you do a good thing this Christmas, the flame pays it back to you. That homeless man was actually the flame itself. If you do a ritual to communicate with the flame, You can choose whether be the God of Christmas or not'.
I immediately started the ritual and the flame appeared. I’m sure everyone in my place would accept the offer, but I didn't. I wanted to have a normal life and not be a god. The flame was surprised, but happy about my choice. Time started again. I tried to realize what had just happened but I couldn't. I had so many questions, but they never got answered. To do a good things and make the flame happy, I adopted a dog from a shelter this Christmas. It is an adventure I will never forget.
Have a nice holiday 
It was a day before Christmas Eve and I was just walking home from work, tired. While I was passing through all the shops and houses that were decorated, I saw a lot of people with their families and friends, laughing and getting ready for the holidays. At that moment, I started to feel something, but I didn't know what it was and while I tried to feel better when I saw all those people together, I actually felt even worse. When I finally arrived home, I went to take a shower, thinking it would help me forget it and feel better but then, I suddenly blacked out. When I woke up and realised what had happened, I thought it was normal and that it had just happened because I was tired.
As the holidays came, I was alone and I didn't know what to do, so I decided to go to the Christmas market to see the shops and decorations. At the very moment I saw all the people who were shopping, I started to feel that feeling again. I felt alone and started to shake a bit. I then went quickly to a cafe to get a drink and go to the bathroom to calm down but as I started hearing silence, I teared up and hid in a toilet. When I locked the door, I felt like I was falling apart slowly and had a mental breakdown. I was shivering while trying not to make a loud noise so nobody would hear me. I blacked out again. I was woken up by someone yelling at me to check if I was okay. They were pale with fear. I didn't know what to say, so I said that I was fine and just a bit tired. They didn't seem to believe me so I told them I was going home. I realised that the person was a waitress, as she was wearing a name tag. Her name was Alex so I thanked her for everything and left her 40 pounds for helping me but she wouldn't let me leave by myself, so she called me a taxi.
When the taxi arrived, I thanked Alex again and got inside. Everything seemed to be normal until halfway through the ride, when I started feeling dizzy again and began to feel a bit worried. I asked the driver to go to a nearby hospital. When we arrived, I went to pay him but he said that the Alex had already paid him. It seemed that they knew each other and that confused me a bit, but I forgot it and thanked him. When I went inside the hospital, I sat an a bench, waiting for the doctor. It had a TV and it was showing Christmas news from all over the world. Everyone was happy but I still wasn't. The doctor came to me and started asking me questions about what I was feeling and after some tests, he seemed worried. I had some more tests because the doctor wanted to make sure he was correct about what I had. I had stage 4 cancer. I didn't know what to do or say, so I thanked him and returned home, calling my mother and father to tell them my news. They were shocked; they couldn't say anything and hung up. It was late and I went to sleep while crying.
The next morning, I heard knocking on my door. It was my family, their arms full with presents. I opened the door and hugged them. They were all there to help me and celebrate the new year together. As the days passed, I started feeling happy and everything seemed nice. When new year’s eve came, everybody was getting prepared for the big moment. I wasn't really feeling that great anymore but I didn't say anything. We started the countdown and everyone seemed so happy but all the voices seemed to be fading away. I blacked out but this time, I woke up in an unfamiliar place. I could see my family all together, going from happy to worried and I heard a familiar voice. "I am here to accompany you to your destination. It was Alex. She seemed real but I got what she meant. My time was finally over. I wished my family a good year and for them to be happy.
Once upon a time,there was a homeless family in Mexico. They had gone through a very difficult time, they had not eaten for a long time or had a place to stay. So,Christmas was coming and this family was jealous of the people who sat by their fireplace in the warmth and dined with relatives and friends until one day,they found a stray dog,helpless in the cold, and neglected by the world. They regretted feeling jealous of other families and gave the dog some food and a temporary roof. They did not have much but they shared it.
Τhe next day,the dog left happy and went on his way. At lunchtime,they heard an old woman’s voice, saying, “Help! Help! Thief!”Immediately,everyone ran to help the her. The father defeated the thief, the mother took care of her and the children took her hand.
After a few days,on Christmas Eve, the old woman went to seethe family. She had the stray dog with her. As soon as the father saw the grandmother, he asked her if she wanted help and immediately,the dog transformer into Santa Claus and the grandmother into a good fairy. They told the family that because they had offered help,they, in turn,would offer the family shelter. In a few minutes,they were in front of a huge villa with all the amenities! The family thanked Santa Claus and the fairy for giving them somewhere to live
It was a cold evening of December, the night before Christmas. There was a boy named Marc, who hadn’t been so good this year, so he decided to do something nice, to make this Christmas special.
He was coming home from his friend’s house and there were lots of people outside. Some of them wanted to buy presents for their families, others wanted to go out for a walk and enjoy the decorations. People looked so happy, but not one boy. Marc thought that he was about his own age. He was looking lonely, sad and he was freezing. He didn’t have a house and he was sleeping on the street.
When Marc saw him, he thought that he should help him and give him a nice Christmas day that he’d never had. So, he told him to come to his house and stay with him. His name was Ben and he was so happy when he saw that Marc cared for him. They spent so much time together and they had the most beautiful Christmas.
One day, there was a homeless man who lived in a box on a street named Hope. This man had been living there for ages but no one told this person to celebrate Christmas. The man was very lonelyand every day, a woman was giving him a little food to eat.
One day, while the man was sleeping, someone said, ‘’Merry Christmas’’,but when the man opened his eyes, he saw nothing. He walked a little to see the town and he saw a police officer and thought that maybe, he could spend the new year with him in his police car. So, the homeless man went to the police officer and said:
“Why are you alone in the freezing night?”
The officer answered, “Because I have my job and I’m very sad that I will not spend the new year with my family”.
The homelessman walked to the next mini market and with the money that he left in his pocket, he bought a hot chocolate for the officer, who was so happy that he hugged the homelessman. The officer gave him 20 pounds, as the man cried and thanked him.
The officer put the homeless man in the car and took him to a church.After a few months the homeless man was a kind person. He had found a job and he gave money to the homeless people in the street named Hope.But the man never foundwho it was that had wished him ‘Merry Christmas’ while he had been sleeping …….someone says ‘’merry Christmas’’,the man open his eyes snd he sees nothing he walked
