Actually, I have a lot. It's already the end of September and Christmas spirits are almost present everywhere. My relatives and friends are starting with their Christmas tree already and I already did mine earlier. Just excited really and looking forward this year. Mainly material things are in my list but what's deep in my heart really is my mom's recovery from breast cancer. We do talk from time to time and I hate it that she somehow talks like she's saying goodbye already. And I am not ready for that yet. Though she just wants to condition my mind or heart but we'll never know how will that feels until it will happen. She still needs to complete two years of therapy and I am praying and wishing that God will hear me. And I am excited that she will come home this November. How about you my fellow mylotters. What's your Christmas wish for this year. I know you have your list also. I hope you can share also. Who knows... Santa might have glimpse on our discussion. I know I am good this year so I am positive that Santa will help me get my wish.

i think i am too old to believe with santa, though i can say that i have a four year old son and i am his santa. believe it or not my wife started to shop and to look around for gifts. this is very effective for us so we wont be on a christmas rush and we have more time to think on what to give for everyone we need to give gifts. well i myself wanted to have a WII, that i know my wife and child will love playing with it too.

Hi, 7. LOL. I know we're a little old to believe in Santa but somehow, it makes me hopeful that I will be able to get my wish. There are a lot of sales in malls before Christmas so it really helps with organizing with the gifts you want to give to the one you love.=) Wii is really the trend here. Almost most of my friends wants to have it this Christmas or this year. As well as ps3 and iphone. It's a must have for people who is into gadgets.

I am sorry to hear about your mother's Beast Cancer and I hope she has heals and recovers from it! My Christmas Wish is for my husband and I to have our own place soon after the first of the year. I will need to find a job so a lot of prayers I need to send out and I also need to work hard to find a job. I am working harder online to try to save up some money so that when I do start my job we can still speedily get our own place. I wish for the stress my husband and I feel to be alleviated, and I also wish for us to be able to save as much as possible for years to come. I suppose my Christmas wishes are selfish as well, though there are some things I wish but hardly do because I am confused about the whole thing. Good Luck to you and yours!

Don't worry my friend. You are not the only one here who is also having financial difficulties. I, on the other hand too, is very thankful that mylot is here because it helps me in some of bills. And I appreciate everyone sharing their wishes here because I know each of us here, who are already familiar with each others nicknames, will say also their prayers for that person in need. Like what I am doing now, saying a prayer for each and everyone of us here. I have to agree with you. It feels so good to have your place because with that, you can be free without having to worry. Unlike that if you live with someone else's house, that you might have to worry or be a little stiff with your movements. Good luck and God bless to you also, SC. You have my prayers and support with you and your husband.

Thank you so much for your kind words and prayers, they are very appreciative. Sometimes we need others to pray for us when we just don't know what to say in our own behalf, do you agree? I appreciate you taking the time to respond back to me and may God Bless You and Your Mother As Well. Have a Safe and Happy Christmas Season.

when we talk about material things, i have few of them. it wont really matter if i get all of it but i wont be getting the only wish i have in mind right now. i wanna be with the person i love but thinking of its probability, it's impossible. but it's okay.. that's why im wishing for it.. because it's impossible.

Hi, Marker. Why is it impossible? Is she working overseas or far from your place? It's still early. So be positive. And technology nowadays is making it easier for communications.

I want lots of things. But of course having too much is not reasonable. Also I realized no one fulfilled any of my wishes two years ago. So I told myself I have to be reasonable and it should be more "real" - things that people can afford to buy for me.LOL Here is my list: 1. Sweaters/Hoodies - I work in an environment that is too cold. 2. Jansport Bag - backpack 3. Shoes - though it'll be expensive, I just wish someone will give me one 4. Cash - LOL. typical but the bigger the better.LOL 5. Gift certificates - I was thinking, if they can't give me money, gift certificates will do.LOL Just these, though I wanted more. I think that will be enough. This year is already full of blessings for me. ^_^

The same wish I had for almost fifteen years now. A better health for the next year to come. I took it one year at a time. And it seems "wish granted" for me. Not only that it works for me but for my family too. Only my daughter was sick with flu this year and no other health problems arises for the entire family. I know it works well and hope that God continue to grant me this simple wish. I pray that your mother recovers from her sickness.

I also pray for your family's and everyone here for their family's good health also. God never fails us. Cheers!

My wish for this year is to have my family together, happy and healthy. I hope by that time I am working nearly full time at the new job I have just started. I also hope to have a marriage that is much stronger that it was this time last year. I hope to have the funds to purchase the gifts my children will love!

Hi, tammy. I don't want to pry but instead, I will also pray that you and your husband will always know how you love each other. Whatever you are going through right now, I am sure both of you can resolve it. Through thick and thin. For better or for worst. =) Your love will keep you alive.

Well, I have three wishes for Christmas: I wish to stay healthy, I wish to have my family around, and I wish for money to pay my bills. I would wish for this, but the chances of this happening are extremely rare, and it will probably never happen, I would wish to see my two remaining brothers. I have never met them, but I would like to. If anything happens to me, I want them to know that they did have a sister, and I want to know that I had brothers.
• Philippines

True. But let's keep our hopes and faith here. I really would like to have a good health so that I could maximize my life. Do things I wanted to do and everything else. But I appreciate that you have a good heart, rogue. Most of us doesn't like the idea of meeting their half siblings.

I have just gained a new partner, and I wish for the two of us to spend Christmas together at my parents house and I would like them to get on with him and like him as much as I do. I haven't really been materialistic about Christmas since I was a child, and I haven't specifically asked for any presents since I was about 16. I don't see the point in things like that, when the only present that I can ever want is to have my whole family together on that special day to enjoy the company of each other.

Very true. Having a good relationship with your family is one of the best feelings we can have in this lifetime. I wish you luck with your boyfriend. I am positive that you, him and your family can get along.

My ultimate wish for this year is to have a healthy baby girl. We are expecting here to come out this end of October. This Christmas will be the first one we'll have as a family. My husband and I had been spending christmas together, but I'm sure the feeling this time would be a totally different experience. As we know christmas is for the kids, and I'm sure this is going to be a memorable one.

Hi, ip. Wow, that's very exciting news. My prayers are for you and for your baby girl. Do let us know here in mylot. It will be a very memorable christmas. Do you have a name for her already? Please, take care always.

You have such a wonderful topic in your discussion but as i keep on reading it's actually a very lonely one. I hope you mother gets well soon. I have a few things in my mind as far as christmas is concerned. I'm eying a 32 inch LCD TV this christmas if there's bonus but chances are the money will not be spent there. It would however be used to pay for debts instead . But i wouldn't mind if my wish won't come true as long as yours will.
• Philippines

Hi, ybong. Thank you very much. Very much appreciated for your thoughtfulness. I really want everyone to be happy this Christmas so I hope your bonus could somehow make a miracle that you could have the 32inch LCD. It will be very good when you watch a movie with your family and friends. It's like you're in the theaters already but with the comfort of your home.

Hi, Totally, I would like first wish you all the best and to have your wish fulfilled! Around me there is no much Christmas spirit right now. It's early and with this famous crisis the life is harder. My wishes are about my daughter - she made her bachelor degree and she is looking for a job. As to myself, I would ask Santa to help me with a trip I want to make.
• Philippines
21 Sep 10
Hi, fanni. Thank you so much for the support. It's very sweet of you. I guess it's really different in some places. And you are right, because of the crisis that everyone is going through, some may not be really feeling the Christmas spirit yet. But I wish really that everyone will be able to get through with their financial problems so that we can all be happy with this coming Christmas. I also wish for your daughter to finish her degree. It's one of the many things in her life that can't be stolen. TC, always Fanny.

Hi, Ross. I heard good reviews about xbox. Wii is more popular here though. Yeah, fresh new shoppped clothes will also be nice most especially since it's Christmas so we get to wear the attire that we like. =)
