Who said Santa Claus only writes to children? Adults who send him a letter also receive a personalized response. Here is the letter they received…
As children, we all sent our letters to Santa Claus, like thousands of little ones who are currently preparing their letters to list the gifts they would like to receive, specifying that they have been very good. But this end-of-year tradition that has been bringing stars to the eyes since 1962 comes to an abrupt end when the identity of the man with the white beard is revealed. What a shame for those who enjoyed writing to him so much! So, for those who would still like to send him sweet words even though they are past the age to do so, know that Santa Claus responds to you and that he will be “deeply touched” by your letter. “SPlease note that every line of your letter made mine beat a little harder this year. So many emotions!
So what does he write to us in return? After thanking you for your adorable letter, Santa Claus will show you all his affection and gratitude. “You know, receiving kind words like yours reminds me why I do what I do. Adults often need a little magic in their lives. I am amazed to see that the Christmas spirit does not fade with age, but that it transforms, reinvents itself to adapt to our adult lives, which are sometimes too serious.“Enough to bring a little lightness to our daily lives, which, in fact, can sometimes seem a little dark… “Being there for others is the greatest gift we can give. With the magic of Christmas, every opportunity is good to make the stars shine in everyone’s eyes”, continues Santa Claus.
Very concerned about the well-being of young and old children, Santa Claus then invites you to “find the little spark that lies dormant within us”, by doing a good deed, such as sharing a little of our time with isolated people.
This year, the Santa Claus secretariat website: pere-noel.laposte.fr is hosting the 1 Lettre 1 Smile association where everyone can write a little note to an elderly person who finds themselves alone during the holidays. What better way to offer a little generosity to those who need it most?
