A story of a young innocent girl who had faith in her wishes and her Santa!!
Well, we all have our own set of Wishlist yet to be fulfilled. We often say, I wish this could happen but I know it just can't happen in my life, I really wish, I get this but I know I won't, it just out of my reach. Today, I will tell you a story of a girl who was very innocent and innocently believed that her wishes will get fulfilled. One day, Santa will come and fulfill all her wishes. After reading this story, I hope and wish that like this girl, you also start believing in your wishes again. Yes, they can come true!!!
So here starts the story -
The girl named Shiny, was born in a very conservative and poor family. She lost her mother, when she was only 6 yrs old. Her father never used to talk to her as he felt that bcoz of her birth, he lost his wife. Also, he never wanted a girl child. And the fact was that her mother died because of emotional, mental and physical trauma, she got from her father regularly, as he always wanted a boy child and she could give him one.
So, he remarried and finally got two baby boys. Shiny 's step brothers who were twins. One was Ramesh and other was Suresh. She was always ill treated by her step mother and bullied by her brothers. And whenever she used to go to her father to talk to, her father never used to listen to her and again favored her brothers, Ramesh and Suresh.
She had nobody to talk to. She used to often cry and talk to her mother alone. She missed her a lot and shared everything with her. But today, she just could not stop crying.... ohhh she was hungry for last 2 days and her step mother had beaten her with hot rod. She kept crying holding her mother's photo in her hand and slept while weeping and weeping and weeping.. She saw a dream and in her dream, she saw her mother talking to her.
Mumma - What happened my child, my princess? Why are you crying so much? See, I am here for you. I am with you always. Whenever you want me near you, just close your eyes, I will always be here with you. Now tell me, what happened?
Shiny - Ohhh. Mumma!! Where have you gone? Nobody loves me.... Am I so bad? And it's paining so much mumma..... What do I do?
Mumma - My love, I am here na, it won't pain now. All will be fine. You are a strong girl na.
Shiny - Why does Papa not love me? What have I done mumma?
Mumma - You are my darling princess, you have not done anything And papa loves you, he just keeps busy with his work.
Shiny - No, mumma! He doesn't love me. He didn't love you also.
Mumma - you know why I kept your name as Shiny? Because, I wanted you to shine like a star in the whole world and I know you will one day. And hey, tomorrow is Christmas!! Your favorite Santa will come tomorrow with lots of gifts.
Shiny - I don't want any gift mumma. I just want you. You are my angel mumma!!
Mumma- I am always there for you my darling. Write your wishes on a paper , close your eyes and tell in the ears of Santa tomorrow . You trust your momma? Very soon an angel will come in your life and take away all your pains and will make your life beautiful.
Shiny - Yes mumma, I trust you!! But what if Santa is busy and he doesn't come to me?
Mumma - Then you give your paper of wish to me and I will give it to Santa.
Shiny - OK Mumma!!
Some months later, she met a boy who became her nice friend. He was very caring and a kind person. He always used to help others and used to protect her from all class mates who used to bully her. He always used to guide her and support her in every way. His name was Rehan.
Shiny - Mumma, Is Rehan my angel? You have sent him for me?
Mumma - Yes darling, Rehan is your angel. He will always take good care of you. And I am always there for you. Just close your eyes as always, I will just be there. And now make one promise to me that you will be like your name. You will shine like a star. You will prove to everyone that you despite of a girl, you are no less than anyone. You will make me proud
Shiny - Yes mumma, I will. Thank you Mummma!! I love you lots!!
Shiny and Rehan grew together, walked together in all tough times holding each others hands like a rock. Shiny got married to Rehan and she is an independent woman Entrepreneur working for the Upliftment of such unfortunate girls and women.
Santa can be anyone, he can be someone around you as in this story, Shiny 's mother was her Santa. Or you can become Santa for someone making someone smile or fulfilling someone 's wishes.
Let all of us become a child once again today at heart and make a wish list and give it to our Santa with full faith and belief. Miracles do happen if we believe in them. Wishes do get fulfilled if we believe in them!!
Let's spread smile and a lot of happiness in each others lives this Christmas!!
A very Merry Christmas to all of you!!
You can also share your story, the way I shared mine. I would love to read.
Keep reading for more!!
Stay safe, Stay blessed and stay happy always!!
Lots of love and my best wishes always!!
