播撒快樂五星1899

【文章梗概】作為猶太人從未有機(jī)會(huì)過圣誕節(jié)，但對(duì)節(jié)日一直渴望的作者在結(jié)婚生子后決心

彌補(bǔ)心中遺憾。從精心布置到發(fā)出聚會(huì)邀請(qǐng)，作者用心地打造濃厚的節(jié)日氛圍。同時(shí)他盛裝

打扮成圣誕老人一一從著裝、姿態(tài)和語氣，十分逼真，給家人帶來快樂。同時(shí)，外表的裝扮

讓他從心里生出為更多孩子帶去快樂的渴望。一次郵局之行讓他發(fā)現(xiàn)了很多貧窮、期待圣誕

老人回應(yīng)的孩子們寄出的信被塵封。于是一次次扮圣誕老人的上門送禮物的有趣溫暖的故事

就發(fā)生了。圣誕老人一直在作者心中，這樣的信念也一直促使他播撒快樂和圣誕信念。
