Dear Santa,
For christmas I wish that you bring love to people who are unloved, happiness to people who feel sad, company to people who are lonely, courage to people who are afraid, peace to people who have a quarrel, relief to people who are suffering. I wish for families and friends to be together, that no one has to starve, for hate and dispute to end, no more discrimination and for people to be regarded as equal. I wish for people that their dreams can become true.
What I want for myself? Oh, I wasn't a good girl this year, I've upset, hurt and disappointed many people. Most of them who mattered a lot to me and whom I've loved. Please give them a little bit extra, okay? Aswell as the people who supported me in any way or form. I wasn't very nice to myself either. Oh, you're still asking me what I want for christmas? Hmm... well, there is a specific thing I want, but I think what I really need is courage. I'm not asking for fortune, because I'm already surrounded by great people and have wonderful friends. I also know that I have the potential for many things. I'm asking for courage because I'm a scared person who is afraid of many things - most of all afraid to be myself. I give up too easily, more than often before I even tried. I need courage to take risks, so I can have a pop flyin' life. To be honest, I think I need to be greedy and ask for a second thing: I also need optimism. And a little hint of faith in myself. I often don't try because I think negatively, and that nothing will work out for me if there is even the slightest hint that I can fail. I've got a lot to offer, but because I'm scared I'm often too late, and then I get very angry at myself for this, and for all the missed opportunities because I didn't react earlier. And then I get even angrier at myself for disappointing people who believed in me. And after I'm not angry anymore for this, I get angry at myself again because I often hurt people around me when I'm angry; aswell as getting angry again because of opportunities I missed or ruining things because I was being angry.
As you can see, Santa, I'm not a good person and don't deserve to be rewarded. But you don't only hand out rewards, right? You also help people who need it. Maybe I don't deserve a reward, but I do deserve help.
I wish you can not only help me, but also people who have the same problems as I do, or other forms of belittlement. Give everyone courage so they can be themselves, be who they really are, create a wonderful life for themselves; free of fear, discouragement, obstacles, anger and hate.
For christmas I wish that everyone can love and appreciate themselves for who and what they are, and the courage to change around their lives for the better if they are unhappy with their situation.
Dear Santa, I wish for everyone to be pop flyin'.
P.S.: Maybe I do need a bit of help with a certain thing, I'm sure you know what I mean. Do you think it would be possible to do a bit of magic that it turns out the best way possible? I promise I will do better than last time and not let it go to waste, and show the strength needed to maintain it.
P.P.S.: Milk and cookies are at their usual place, you know where. Please watch out to not step on the little dog!
P.P.P.S.: My best friend wants to go to EVO next year; just as a hint in case you don't know what present you should get him.
