My Santa Oath
As "Santa" I will always be in character.
I will continue to educate myself in the Traditions of Christmas,
so I can bring Christmas Cheer and Love
to All People I meet in my Journeys and Travels.
I will open my heart to listen to the secret dreams
of both children and adults.
I will never promise a gift to a child
as I know the only gift I can give, as "Santa," is me.
I will always do my best to pass on the love and joy
of the Christmas, Holiday Season.
I will always fulfill the wishes of children and adults as to their dreams,
wishes, and beliefs about "Santa" and Christmas.
Today, Children see "Santa" everywhere.
"How can he be in so many places at one time"?
Many parents tell their children,
"From early November up until Christmas Eve
"Santa" needs lots of helpers."
Are you the real "Santa?"
This is a question all "Santas" hear.
I answer in many different ways. Such as, "I looked
real this morning when I saw myself in the mirror brushing my teeth."
I also tell them the "Real Santa" will not tell you he is the "Real Santa,"
So, I won't tell you I'm the Real Santa.
You have to decide.
"Yeah, but... how will I know if you won't tell me?"
You will know the "Real Santa" by the feelings in your heart.
After All....."Santa" lives in the Hearts of Many.
Ho Ho Hooooo...On Dasher, on Dancer, On Prancer and Vixen,
On Comet, Cupid, Donner and Blitzen and...... On Rudolph..... Dash Away, Dash Away, Dash Away All!!
Merry Christmas to All and to All a Good Night!!
