The first thing that comes to mind on Christmas is Santa. I thought it would be better if I write something informative about Santa. So who is Santa? Santa Claus, furthermore known as Saint Nicholas, Father Christmas, Kris Kringle, or plainly “Santa”, is the stature who, in the most part of Western cultures, is known to bring gifts on Christmas Evening. The legend may have part of its basis in hagiographical tales concerning the historical figure of Saint Nicholas.
In this modern era Santa Claus can be represented as a chubby, large, cheerful man wearing a red coat and trousers with white cuffs and collar, and black leather belt and boots. He became popular in the United States in the 19th century due to the important influence of caricaturist and political cartoonist Thomas Nast. I still on every Christmas Eve wait outside my house believing that Santa would bring gifts for me. But to be frank I haven’t received any gifts from Santa till now. And all the time I will ask my father, why Santa isn’t giving me any gifts. He then will dress up like Santa and will give me some gifts. Now at this age I don’t expect such things. But now I understood that Santa came in the form of my father and gave me gifts. So dear friends Christmas has to be enjoyed. Santa is a character to entertain you and make you happy. So who ever entertains you and makes you happy is Santa. Don’t lose your faith. God is within us.
