Santa Claus: Sharing Joys, Giving Gifts, Ushering Christmas Spirit

Is Santa Claus a mythical figure, or a magical character, or was a real father figure who came with gifts for kids? Is Santa Claus real or magical? Or combination of one of them or all of them? Mythical, magical, real. Or something else? One can agree Santa Claus is someone who loves others. Many authorities give many interpretations on Santa Claus.

“Santa Claus is anyone who loves another and seeks to make them happy; who gives himself by thought or word or deed in every gift that he bestows; who shares his joys with thosewho are sad; whose hand is never closed against the needy; whose arm is ever outstretched to aid the weak; whose sympathy is quick and genuine in time of trouble; who recognizes a comrade and brother in every man he meets upon life’s common road; who lives his life throughout the entire year in the Christmas spirit,” noted Edwin Osgood Grover, attributed, in The Book of Santa Claus.

Irrespective of the magical, mythical and real existence of Santa Claus, one can always be a Santa Claus and cheer a child or some children: generate goodness in your world. Christmas is also about sharing joys, and giving gifts, who else can do that in the place of God? A Santa Claus.
