    When I read this story it showed how Scrooge changed during the three visits from each spirit the first one was the ghost of christmas past, the second was the ghost of the christmas present, the third one was the ghost of the christmas future and it talked about how it has affected scrooge in the past, present, and the future, I think the future affected him the most because he thought having a lot of money would make him a popular person, but when he saw his death, and he was alone, he began to realize money is not what makes family, he thinks about tiny tim about that tiny tim is not rich but he is everyone favorite.

    This was that Scrooge did NOT appreciate anything he had in his life. Throughout the beginning of the story, Scrooge took everything for granted. Of course, Scrooge could not realize this because his greed for money took over his soul. He was so caught up in making money, that he did not take a look around him to understand that he was blessed with a loyal clerk, a prosperous company, and a jolly relative still alive. The motif that Scrooge didn’t appreciate him clearly ties back with the chosen passage. This is because when Marley comes to tell Scrooge about the three ghosts, the ghosts will turn him into a more cheerful, appreciative, person. This is also the first part in the story when Scrooge has an opportunity to realize that Marley was such a great friend and partner to him.…

    The way we look at people and compare them to ourselves, are sometimes the leading factors for changes within our lives and the way we perceive the world. When the Ghost of Christmas Past takes Scrooge to revisit his youthful days in Fezziwig's world, Scrooges attitude towards life is soon shifted and he is reminded how his own values have diverged greatly from those of someone he once admired. Mr. Fezziwig is a character put in place to provide contrast with Scrooge's attitudes towards business ethics. Scrooge tells the Ghost that Fezziwig's “gift of happiness to his friends far outweighs the money he spent on the party.” Fezziwig is the paragon of friendship, and his scene makes Scrooge reflect on his own “callous treatment” of his employees. Dickens shows the audience that Scrooge is starting to realise and take in what kind of “cold hearted, solitary old sinner” he is portrayed as, much different to the man he is remembering as his first employer. He also starts to explain to the Ghost how he “wants to talk to [his] clerk” about the conditions that he has heartlessly being forcing him to labour in. From travelling back into his childhood and witnessing such a kind and generous man like Fezziwig, Scrooge starts to question his morals in life and how he should change his ways and transform himself into a likeable,…

    Here are some reasons, the first reason is, in the Christmas carol he made a character named scrooge. Scrooge is supposed to be a bad, cruel, and a rude person. No one likes him in the Christmas carol, everyone is afraid of him. Dickens also created three spirits in the story. Each spirit is supposed to teach Scrooge lessons and his mistakes.

    He remembers how he was rejected, and then he feels regretful and sad for what he had done and what might happen because of him. In the second stave it says, “The school is not quite deserted,” said the Ghost. “A solitary child, neglected by his friends, is left there still” (33). This depicts that Scrooge had no one that really loved him. He didn’t have any real friends or people to talk too. Scrooge thinks about what he has done, and says regretfully, “There was a boy singing a Christmas carol at my door last night. I should like to have given him something” (36). This demonstrates that Scrooge knows that he has made mistakes, and is starting to become a better person, with the Ghosts’ help. Scrooge becomes sad, finally thinking about someone other than himself. “Spirit,” said Scrooge, with an interest he had never felt before, “Tell me if Tiny Tim will live.” “I see a vacant seat,” replied the Ghost, “In an old chimney corner, and a crutch without an owner, carefully preserved. If these shadows remain unaltered by the future, the child will die” (65). This shows that Scrooge really does care about other people. He is recognizing his emotions for other people…
