"There are many things from which I might have derived good, by which I accept not profited."
– Fred, A Christmas Ballad

Entire forests take been sacrificed to describe the joys of giving, to sum up the warm, mushy feeling that comes from altruistic acts. Information technology's the affair that made old Scrooge declare, after his apparition-induced epiphany: "I am every bit lite as a plume, I am as happy equally an angel, I am as merry as a schoolhouse-boy, I am as giddy as a drunken man."

Only really, all the words in the earth (even ones from Dickens'south pen) are no substitute for the real matter. And so we've stuffed this postal service equally full every bit a Christmas goose with the wish lists of local charities and not-profits whose funding, in many cases, has decreased even equally the demand for services has skyrocketed.

Then go ahead–give. If you've got a lot, give a lot; if you've got a trivial, give a lilliputian. Either style you lot'll be helping someone in need, and raising your own spirits in the process. And yous didn't even need three ghosts to get in that location.
