“A Christmas Carol” by Charles Dickens exemplifies a timeless classic. The novella was published in 1843 and has captured readers' hearts for generations. The story is so entangled with the winter holidays that it has inspired numerous adaptations on all types of media and has become an integral part of the Western literary canon.

Set in Victorian London, the story revolves around the life of the miserly Ebenezer Scrooge. This man is so heartless and consumed by his greed that he does not comprehend the amount of suffering various people surrounding him endure. On one fateful Christmas Eve, Scrooge is met by the ghost of his late business partner, Jacob Marley, who warns him of his ultimate fate and the arrival of three ghosts: the Ghost of Christmas Past, the Ghost of Christmas Present, and the Ghost of Christmas Yet to Come.

One of the things that makes A Christmas Carol a timeless classic is its multilayered thematic background. The novella is a story of redemption, compassion, and the true spirit of the winter celebration. The book’s central theme revolves around the idea that it is never too late to reform, rekindle old relationships, and allow the sheer warmth of giving to enter one’s life.

Another captivating part of the novella is the word-image of Victorian London. The city, with its grimy streets and impoverished neighbourhoods, is presented vividly through the eyes of the novel’s protagonists. Scrooge’s interactions with Bob Cratchit, Tiny Tim, and the Fezziwig family stress the importance of human connection and love for others regardless of societal discrepancy.

However, the most essential thing in A Christmas Carol is the genuine, multi-faceted, and memorable characters. With his famous catchphrase, “Bah, humbug!” Scrooge has surpassed the barrier between the book’s pages and has become an idiom for many English speakers. Nevertheless, it is not only the comic character that contributes to the novella’s attraction. He is a bonus fide protagonist who changes from the unfeeling older man into the giver. His transformation is the biblical process, symbolised by Marley and the three ghosts that appear to Scrooge. Past takes him down the memory path; Present presents the wonders of Christmas and the importance of family and friends, while Yet to Come is a dark mirror of the future if Scrooge continues his selfish way.

The book is also language-rich and story-rich. Charles Dickens’ elegant prose and brilliant storytelling completely incorporate the reader into the narration's spirit.

A Christmas Carol is still a gem that spins and always hits home. It epitomizes the real meaning of Christmas, encapsulates the need for one another during the celebration, and most profoundly speaks of an individual's capability to reach new extremes of generosity.

“The sun goes down long and red. All the magic names of the valley unrolled - Manteca, Madera, all the rest. Soon it got dusk, a grapy dusk, a purple dusk over tangerine groves and long melon field; the sun the color of pressed grapes, slashed with burgundy red, the fields the color of love and Spanish mysteries. I stuck my head out the window and took deep breaths of the fragant air. It was the most beautiful of all moments.” ~ Jack Kerouac Hello Burgundy Red Hair! 👋🏻👋🏻 Just in time for this year’s Christmas season & Winter Season to change my new hairstyle color! ❤️‍🔥❤️ #burgundy #burgundyred #burgundyhair #haircolour #haircolor #goth #gothic #redhair #gothgirl #mystique #spiritique #autumn #autumnseason #winter #winterseason #wintersolstice #christmas #christmasseason #christmasspirit #spiritofchristmas #hairstyle #yule #yuleseason #yulelog #yuleblessings #firered #virgo #virgoenergy #spiritualvibes #spirituality https://www.instagram.com/p/CmQ3SJKSFka/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Mi manca vagare per le vie del centro, vedere tutte quelle luci e quelle vetrine natalizie, guardare le persone passeggiare sorridenti e stringersi per non soffrire il freddo...

As Christmas approaches, the streets have changed. The spirit of Christmas is very present in Malta, the decorations are beautiful, Christmas songs are played in the streets. Maltese people love to celebrate Christmas. At work we celebrated Christmas twice. For the second time, a big party was organized for the company in a big hotel in St Julian. 

It's not easy to spend the holidays away from my family but Maltese people are very open-minded, and I am lucky to share my apartment with great flatmates.

While the world is anything but stable as we close out the year, the skies are clear for safely celebrating with each other again. However, there could be a couple of relationship challenges in the first part of the month, as your December 2022 horoscope reveals. The love planets, Venus and Mars (which is retrograde in pair-bonding Gemini), will face each other down in a tense opposition on December 1. Then, the December 7 Gemini full moon will make an exact alignment, demanding that we clear the air. Heap on the diplomacy and patience, which could be in short supply. That trademark Sagittarius season honesty, normally a refreshing burst of candor, could veer toward the brutal side. While you can’t avoid certain conversations, take extra care to keep them from getting contentious. Other Astrology event in December: - Final Full moon in Gemini (Dec 7) - Winter Solstice Yule / Capricorn Season (Dec 21) - Final New moon in Capricorn (Dec 22/23) - Final Mercury Retrograde of 2022 (Dec 28/29) Have a blessed first weekend of the month to everyone 😊💛💖��❄️🌨 #mystique #spiritique #hellodecember #decemer2022 #december #december1st #wintersolstice #yule #christmas #christmasseason #winter #winterseason #spiritofchristmas #repost @moonandcactus • @withrepost ✨ASTROLOGY OF DECEMBER 2022✨ Swipe for the rest. The beginning of the month is going to feel fast paced and might even fly by, but as we approach Capricorn Season & Mercury Retrograde at the end of the month, things will slow down significantly. A great way to end the year off & reflect on what it is we wish to accomplish in 2023. It's going to be a kick ass month! Blessed new month to you & for all 💖 Affirm: I place my full trust in the Universe. https://www.instagram.com/p/ClqGtBFSSlk/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Tonight is Twelfth Night - my saddest day of the year. It’s the last day of my Christmas break and the day I take down all the Christmas lights and decorations, leaving behind dark corners and strangely naked bannisters, doors and windowsills... For one last hurrah, here are some of my favourite things from this Christmas: my Happy Chicken, a gorgeously pouffy #pudding #pompom made by my friend Sue, one of the sumptuous #winterfloral displays at #wightwickmanor and finally a pantomime-themed bracelet watched over by @trollbeadsofficial #spiritofchristmas... 🐓🎄🎁🎅🐝 (Happy Chicken chart available from £3.50 on www.bluecoppice.com) #bluecoppice #miniaturemotifs https://www.instagram.com/p/B68x7RMp6g8/?igshid=1r28zto6fds5z
