Holiday Wishes......stolen from <a
href="http://www.livejournal.com/users/eiluned/"eiluned</a>
It's <a
href="http://www.livejournal.com/users/tartanshell/>tartanshell</a>'s
idea. :)
Step One
- Make a post (public, friendslocked, filtered...whatever you're
comfortable with) to your LJ. The post should contain your list of 10
holiday wishes. The wishes can be anything at all, from simple and
fandom-related ("I'd love a Snape/Hermione icon that's just for me")
to medium ("I wish for _____ on DVD") to really big ("All I want for
Christmas is a new car/computer/house/TV.") The important thing is,
make sure these wishes are things you really, truly want.
- If you wish for real life things (not fics or icons), make sure you
include some sort of contact info in your post, whether it's your
address or just your email address where Santa (or one of his elves)
could get in touch with you.
- Also, make sure you post some version of these guidelines in your
LJ, or link to this post (it'll be public) so that the holiday joy
will spread.
Step Two
- Surf around your friendslist (or friendsfriends, or just random
journals) to see who has posted their list. And now here's the
important part:
- If you see a wish you can grant, and it's in your heart to do so,
make someone's wish come true. Sometimes someone's trash is another's
treasure, and if you have a leather jacket you don't want or a gift
certificate you won't use--or even know where you could get someone's
dream purebred Basset Hound for free--do it.
You needn't spend money on these wishes unless you want to. The point
isn't to put people out, it's to provide everyone a chance to be
someone else's holiday elf--to spread the joy. Gifts can be made
anonymously or not--it's your call.
There are no rules with this project, no guarantees, and no strings
attached. Just...wish, and it might come true. Give, and you might
receive. And you'll have the joy of knowing you made someone's
holiday special.
Step 3:
Comment in the LJ of the person for whom you've done something, you
don't necessarily need to say WHAT, just wish them a happy, peaceful,
healthy 2005.
