But the thing is, if there is a Santa Claus, why is it that sometimes poor people don't get the things they want or need on Christmas, and why do parents need to buy for their children? Heck, why do we even need things like santaletter.com if Santa was really real? If he was real, he could write the letter himself.
Some people are really good people, I wouldn't say that we never do anything bad or slip up, but many people are on the "nice list" so to speak, and they don't ever get anything for Christmas. Why? It's not because they were bad. It's because they can't afford the presents, and there isn't a real Santa.
Now, at one point in time in history, there was a real "Santa Claus" called St Nicholas. And if I remember right he would give oranges and other fruits to the really poor. This St Nicholas wasn't the overly glorified Santa that there is now, but at one time he did exist. Now he doesn't, and certainly not this man who can do magic and have magical flying reindeer and elves make toys exist. He's a legend and nothing more.
But I would honestly love it if there really was a Santa Claus. But let's face it, it's the parents that have to go out and buy presents for their kids and wrap them. I found that out early on.
Look out Rudolph, Santa might just replace you with the cute, magical, Christmas Kittens!
