DEAR SANTA: (I really hope he gets this letter)

I just copied this from China Daily Web site. It's definitely a whole nother world I live in from when I was 3 and all I wanted from Santa was a piece of candy and a dollar. I sure hope the old man knows how to respond to this one:
(excuse the Chinglish and bad spelling, English is not her first language.)

Dear Santa Claus:
from a tv program, I know many children write to you for their dreams these days. when i was also a small girl with puerility ,your red clothes, white whisker and also the green x'mas tree with various present on ,hard snow, sweet songs impressed me a lot on my memory, it is a pity that i had never write to you. now i am not a child anymore, but i still want to write a letter to you.
after graduating and with time goes by ,i have changed a lot .day after day ,from office work to house work, from house work to office work, quarrel with bf for money not for love...a ordinary people live a ordinary life without colorful dreams.
unfortunately, i found myself pregnant due to failed protect. 2 pills morning,1pills night, after 3 days ,take 3 pills in hospital, then everything ended. My first baby, I could see her (his) tiny leg, was sweep by the running water to cloaca. Babe, sorry. It was a busy street out of the hospital, and lots of passerby, maybe all are passerby or audiences including my bf.
Santa Claus, sorry for tell you this ,maybe it is a happy festival ,and you don't want to read this sad sentences, sorry, I don't know to whom I can tell it . it was a big stone in my heart.
X'mas and the new year is coming ,please bless my poor baby somewhere, and do not forget to give it a gift, thank you.
Merry Christmas.


Yours sincerely

I wonder what everyone else wants from Santa this year?
My wish for Santa is for an insistent reminder of just how lucky I am.

all you need to do is keep reading that letter over and over cuz it shonuff provides a baseline: everyone who aint her is lucky. 

you need only look to yourself to realize just how much luckier you are than that.

to be young, gifted and black as nina puts it...and in shanghai (i doubt even nina has a clue bout that) has to be like winning at least one kinda lottery, no?

as beneficiaries of your vision, we too are luckier than we'd otherwise be (possibly even more than we now realize as well!)
