Mega Merry Christmas Mix! The 12 moments finale.

Celebrating the magical moment of Christmas. Enjoy a custom made wallpaper.

…There once was a little girl who had every possible toy in the world.

Her mother would buy her toys and gifts every Christmas.
Their father had passed away, leaving the mother to be very busy.
Every Christmas, she would leave only the gifts behind, and head off to a gathering, event, or meeting.
The girl was sad and was never truly happy.
Thus, the girl never smiled, believing that she would find the one perfect gift.
One day, her school had a Christmas play which she pleaded her mother to attend, yet she had a business trip to attend.
Nonetheless, she reserved a seat for her mother, in hopes that she would come to see her, even when she never seemed to show up before.
The day of the play came and the play started. Sadly, the seat remained empty.
But, at the final scene of the play, her mother miraculously came in, as her meeting had been canceled, and sat down in the seat reserved for her by her daughter.
At the end of the play, she applauded with the rest of the crowd.
In an instant the daughter came running down the stage and jumped into the arms of her mother, bursting in tears.
Concerned, she asked her daughter, “What’s wrong? Did something happen?”
“No,” her daughter replied, “I finally found my perfect gift,” she said.
“And what would that be?”, her mother asked?

“You.” her daughter said, with the brightest smile slowly blossoming from her lips.

So, I hope that you would have a great Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, and holiday in general to all of you.

Celebrate with some Christmas carols, spend some quality time with your family, or just sit down on that comfy couch and watch your favorite episode of anime to end the year.

Tis’ the time of giving, happiness, and joy.

On that note, I’d also like to wish Nagisa a very Merry Christmas and a happy birthday.

You should be familiar with the show she’s from, Clannad, which makes the top of my anime moments list. Clannad was truly a great anime of this year. Although I was reluctant to watch it at first, it got me driven into the romance theme and was a unique anime of its own. It was beautifully animated, had some wonderful characters, and a story that we can relate to, and cry to. It brought us tears, it brought us laughter, and it brought us memories. I don’t regret a single second spent watching Clannad.

Thus ends my 12 Moments series.

So I wish that you would have a great day and make some memories of your own.

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays from Ganbatte Forever!, where you should always remember to try your best.
