How about the international influence of Christmas
The charm of Christmas is irresistible, whether in the East or the West. More and more people are beginning to like this western festival. According to the traditions of various countries, the streets and alleys are full of lights and festivities a month before and after Christmas. People are planning to buy Christmas gifts for friends and family.
When Christmas is approaching, in Western countries, children are eagerly looking forward to receiving Christmas gifts from Santa Claus. Who is “Santa Claus”? we do not know. We only know that he only comes to our lives once a year, and the only thing he does is to give people Christmas gifts. In modern society, people live a utilitarian and indifferent life, only to be relieved for a while at the festival. In the emotional desert of modern life, the magical Santa Claus has brought a small oasis.
The Christmas gifts that Santa Claus gives to children can best reflect the spirit of gifts. Anthropologists often emphasize the obligation of gifts in return. However, the Christmas gift for children is to remove this obligation of return. Of course the parents are the actual givers of the gifts, but they voluntarily retreated behind the scenes and let the mysterious Santa Claus come forward to give Christmas gifts. In many countries, the post office has a special department to answer children’s letters to Santa Claus. Those who wrote the reply letters were all volunteers who worked voluntarily.
