There are 12 times of 25th a year, but 25th of December is the most meaningful one. It is Christmas as you expect these days! Even though you are not Christian like me, you could enjoy the warm environment of Christmas.

There are many stories related to Christmas. Not only the red nose reindeer Rudolf, but also the elves are examples of Christmas fairy tales. Like them, we know (or just believe that we do know) that Santa Claus is also one of the fairy tales. When you were young, you must have heard the story of Santa Claus who left the present inside one of your socks at Christmas Eve. I think many of you would not be able to fall asleep easily at Christmas Eve, expecting his visit. Isn’t it one of the precious memories from your childhood? But all of us know that Santa Claus doesn’t really exist. How did you feel when you knew that? I was very shocked. How could I believe that it wasn’t him who gave a present so far!

Since this year, however, I believe that he lives somewhere in the North Pole, because there is a reason which makes me believe his existence. Actually a few days ago, I did meet him in my room. He just looks like the same I imagined before! Despite of his everlasting smilely face, he looked little bit sad and disappointed. I asked him why and after some times of rejection, I finally got the answer. He was sad because there is no one who waits for his visit and believes his existence. I felt little bit sorry because I also didn’t. I can’t tell you anymore about this because I promised him not to tell all the talks we did.

After you read the book “The Autobiography of Santa Claus” you can experience the same thing I did. I am sure you would believe that he is preparing for Christmas presents for every children all over the world. “The Autobiography of Santa Claus” is the true biography of Santa Claus. I know it’s unbelievable but it is true. This book is the clue of his existence. In this story, you could know everything about him, his birth, his life style, and the reason why he got this special job. Furthermore, you can talk to him and ask to him what you have been curious so far.

It depends on you whether believe this story or not. If you want to believe it, it truly is. If you think he lives somewhere in the world, he must be living somewhere you can’t find forever, and your heart at the same time. So next time, when you get a present at the Christmas Eve, be thankful to Santa Claus. I wish you could get lots of presents from Santa Claus this Christmas Eve.
