Here's my entry for the Ecency Day 12 contest:

"What Gift Would You Like to Unwrap?"

As I sit by the tree, surrounded by the soft glow of twinkling lights, I find myself pondering the perfect gift. Amidst the rustling of wrapping paper and the joyous laughter of loved ones, I close my eyes and let my heart whisper its deepest desire.

A gift of good health, wrapped in a ribbon of happiness and tied with a bow of love, would be the most precious present I could ever unwrap. To see my loved ones thriving, to feel my own body strong and resilient, and to know that we're all surrounded by an abundance of wellness – that would be the ultimate gift.

But, if I'm being completely honest, I'd also love to unwrap a gift of unlimited travel! To explore the world's hidden wonders, to immerse myself in different cultures, and to experience the breathtaking beauty of our planet – that would be a dream come true!

So, if I could unwrap any gift, it would be a beautiful blend of good health, love, and adventure – with a side of unlimited travel, of course!

That sounds like the perfect gift ❀️ I'm sure 2025 will bring you many good things.
Happy Holidays

Same wishes

Travel leads to the best adventures and memories for life! It is an excellent gift!

Thank you

That sounds so sweet! πŸ₯°

Thank you

Beautiful wishes, beautiful gifts that will be fulfilled for you.
Happy day to you!

Thank you. Same great wishes to you

We had a similar response of "travels"... how I would love to unwrap a gift like that

This Christmas I would like to unwrap many gifts 🎁 and an example of this would be that, by magic ✨ or by a movement of the universe 🌌, my creativity becomes immense πŸ’‘ and I can write many contents for HIVE's communications through ECENCY πŸ“. Another gift that I would love 😍 and am sincerely waiting for is my fully equipped black or white van 🚚; it is a dream I want to come true 🌟. But being less materialistic, the gift that I wish very much is to see my two-year-old granddaughter πŸ‘Ά who lives abroad 🌎 with her parents and whom I have many years without seeing, without hugging them πŸ€—. The latter would be the best gift 🎈.
Happy holidays to all! πŸŽ‰πŸŽ„

En estas navidades me gustarΓ­a desenvolver muchos regalos y un ejemplo de ello serΓ­a que, por obra y magia o por un movimiento del universo, mi creatividad se haga inmensa y pueda escribir muchos contenidos para las comunicaciones de HIVE a travΓ©s de ECENCY. Otro regalo que me encantarΓ­a y que sinceramente lo estoy esperando es mi camioneta full equipada de color blanco o negro; es un sueΓ±o que quiero que se haga realidad. Pero siendo menos materialista, el regalo que deseo mucho es poder ver a mi nieta de dos aΓ±os que vive en el extranjero junto con sus padres y que tengo muchos aΓ±os sin verlos, sin abrazarlos. Este ΓΊltimo serΓ­a el mejor regalo.
Β‘Felices fiestas para todos!

Fantastic wish my dear friend i wish you success

That’s a good wish and I am sure your G babies miss you too

I wish your wishes to be granted. You'll see your family again and have good quality time with them very soon, I know it.

Thank you 😊!

Espero que recibas todos los regalos y en especial que puedas abrazar a tu nieta. Felices fiestas πŸŽ„β€οΈ

Thank you, Melon Heart!
Happy day!

I would be thrilled if the gift that I unwrap is a cool digital tablet for drawing and designing. I saw one on the internet that I liked. It's called Kamvas 24 or it could be a Galaxy Tab S6 lite. And if Baby Jesus can't bring any of that, then with a case of 168 double-ended markers, I'll be content.πŸ˜πŸ˜πŸ‘πŸ‘βœοΈπŸ˜‰

It would be a great gift. I hope you receive it and your wishes are granted.

What a coincidence! I have the Tab S6 Lite and it's an excellent tablet in terms of quality and price. You can definitely do wonderful things with it. However, the pencil tips wear out quite quickly, so make sure to have replacements on hand. Without a doubt, a magnificent gift idea. 🎨

Hey great! I saw it in suggestions on the net and I loved it, I think you can draw - design comfortably if I get it to be sure I will follow your suggestion!

A cute little Hive Blockchain!

We already have that 🀭

Smaller!!! I want to put it on my desk! πŸ˜‚

Ohh, I got it hahaha Well, I want one of those too 🀭

Then I wish you one as well!!! ;-)

Hmmm... Not really, I already have a witness, albeit inactive at the moment, and a few bots, so that part of the Hive tune, there's no need to wish for, just put in some more work ;-)
No, I want a cute little physical version of the Hive Blockchain, to put on my desk :-)
Nobody said the wishes should be possible! :-D

I would love to unwrap the gift that is packed in many wrapping paper layers :))

I would love to unwrap just one gift 🎁 that will represent all the gifts I never got : tickets to Paris! Champs-Elysées we have a date 🌹

That one is easy. Unwrap WETH to get ETH!

Excellent gift.

I don't think so much about material things these days.

The only things I want for this Christmas is good health for me and my family, including mental health, good quality time with all of them and freedom to travel and to be free in general.

With those things I can manage to get everything I want and need in this world, I don't need anything else.

I just want to be with my family.

Being by the side of loved ones is always the best gift. I send you a hug along with my best wishes πŸŽ„πŸŽ

Thank you very much 😊🀍

Wow that is lovely my dear friend......wishing you success, i love it that your mind has transcend, this is good wish

Thank you very much 😊

Health is important and that wish is wonderful because you also want it for your family. Your wish will be granted.
Happy day to you!

Thank you 😊

Best wishes for you as well.

This 2024 I have received so many blessings and it has been so special that I don't aspire to unwrap any gifts; what I really want is to wrap them and be able to give a present to those who have supported me throughout this year and have made it wonderful. Being able to give back to all those who have given me so much would be the best gift.

Happy Holidays 🎁

This is the best i have seen, very wonderful wish my dear, and that is the goal of the season, to put lots of smile on the faces of others

The best gift we can get is the opportunity to give to others 😊

PIZZA!

$PIZZA slices delivered:
@itharagaian(4/10) tipped @hive-103505
irisworld tipped ecency

Would love to unwrap either a car or car parts as my current one is disintegrating day by day :( Perfect time to hold the festive spirit high :)

A car is always needed. It's a good gift to receive 😊

For my part, I'm waiting to unpack what we took from the account store @itharagaian and @meta-etre with the few HIVEs we won during the year.

We bought her handmade candles from her 100% natural and artisanal store
https://www.meta-etre.com/index.php/home/deco

We will write an article about them as soon as we have them in hand, normally over the weekend.

Thanks, even if I am still a "him" :)

I would really love to unwrap a brand new car

I would love to unwrap some car keys.
Now hear me out, I don't mean nothing fancy or new.

I would love to get an old scraggly rusty and beat up car that I could take to the isolated forest roads and just have fun driving without any worries of scratching or damaging the car in any way.

Β 3 days agoΒ (edited)Β 

That sounds very fun. I would love to go with you in your adventure lol

I would like to give myself a world cruise as a gift, a rather lavish gift, but I have always wanted to travel by boat and vacation like that.

I would love to go on a cruise too, but I have seen Titanic and I'm a little afraid of big boats and the open sea πŸ˜…

You have to take risks LOL, but don't watch "The Snow Society" because you'll be afraid of heights for the rest of your life.

I'm already afraid of heights. I don't need to be in a high place, just by seeing a big building I'm already scared of it.

πŸ˜„πŸ˜„πŸ˜„...The Moment i saw This i giggled a bit, like in split of a second i knew the answer

Like i have said in some of my previous answers, My biggest Challenge is a Mobile Phone, from Day one i have been struggling to be able to stay consistent and have a decent blogging life on #hive due to a bad phone, with dead battery and manageable camera...

So for @ecency Day12 advent calender Wishes, i earnestly wish i can Unwrap a gift of a smart mobile phone, atleast with Good camera, processor and good battery capacity, because i'm heading into 2025 with a mindset of Going all in on #hive really ready to take my blogging life to another but only if i have a better smartphone, so nothing would hinder my flow of creativity, ....

that would be my wish for a gift i would wish to unwarp

Actively anticipating the festive season, it's that time of the year when we get to spend more time with friends and family. Joy and gladness will fill my heart if I get to unwrap a new laptop.

The one I currently have is very bad, and I cannot use it anymore, so I have to use my phone for work, which can be highly inconvenient and slow down the pace of things.

I will smile so much, and my heart will be filled with gladness and gratitude if I get to unwrap a good laptop I can use to work this holiday.

Happy holidays!!

Uff, I'm here again jjj πŸ₯°
I really love gifts. They make me feel so excited, but this Christmas I'd like to unwrap blessings, cheerful, love, health, intelligence, strongness, and friendship.

Also new ideas for my Hive posts, new followers, more comments in my publications, more people reading me and sharing my content.

Furthermore and materially speaking, travel tickets and a photographical camera.

I hope you all may receive what you expect to unwrap this year β˜ΊοΈπŸŽ„

I would love to unwrap a new gaming console! It would be exciting to explore the latest games and enjoy improved graphics and performance. Additionally, a subscription to a gaming service would be a fantastic bonus, giving me access to a wide range of titles.

What console would you like it to be? PS or Xbox?

PS

That's nice. I don't really know why, but I would like to have an Xbox.

I will be really excited and full of laughter to unwrap a gift of a certified true copy of the certificate and a proof of ownership of Bitcoin, Purchased in my name and for me.

I want an increase in my cryptocurrency activities, Hive included. Reason being that I want to guide against financial lack or poverty.

Merry Christmas season to all.

A box filled with notes of encouragement. The year has really been tough

I'd love to find some silver rounds that are on my wish list but I know I will not receive these because my boyfriend will not interfere in these buys. I'm the one managing the gift department here in the household (I'm the Elf, as you could say) so I know what I will find under the tree.

I'm a bit curious if my daughter has managed to convince her father to get me something together though, anything will do, it's the thought that counts, right?

What gift would you love to unwrap?

If a home invasion were to occur at my home the evening of December 25th and the intruder just happened to leave a gift for me to open, I wouldn't mind unwrapping an electric bike. The foldable kind, with a very high capacity battery, preferably black and a digital display. It's only 100 HIVE... once HIVE hits $12.00

!BBH

Well, I wouldn't mind if I receive one of those too.

I would love to unwrap Ultimate Chests from @Splinterlands

I think I am now at the point of my life that I don't get excited receiving things wrapped in fancy paper.

Ever since I started playing #Splinterlands, I get excited reaching new levels and always looking forward to the season's finale.

Maybe I am just this shallow but that's what makes me happy.

I am hoping for your happiness as well. Happy holidays !BBH !LOLZ

What do I need to do to start playing Splinterlands? Do I have to invest?

Thanks for taking interest in #Splinterlands. There are many approaches if you want to play the game. You can buy, rent or request for cards delegation. There are also this scholarship which you have to play an account and will have a fair sharing of rewards.

In that scholarship I have to play with another person's account? And how can I do to have an account of my own?

You can create your own account thru my referral link https://next.splinterlands.com/register?ref=day1001

When you register, we will both get 500 credits which we can use in purchasing items in @splinterlands

You need to buy a spellbook worth $10. You may refer to this link for more info https://next.splinterlands.com/user/ambassador/benefits

Thank you very much 😊 I'll check it out later.

Without a doubt, if I had to choose a gift, and considering something realistic, I would choose one of these two things: a deck of Yu-Gi-Oh! cards or a Nintendo DS, maybe because they are the toys I enjoyed the most during my childhood and I have a lot of fond memories with them. The Nintendo DS with a PokΓ©mon game or Kingdom Hearts for that console would be perfect.

I'd like to unwrap a PS5. I want to be a full-time Youtuber someday. Being able to stay on the latest games would help my channel tremendously. or a new camera. I want to take my photography/videography to the next level.
Thats my entry for today's prompt.

I would love to unwrap an envelope with a ticket from πŸ›©οΈ to Atlanta for Christmas, my two children and my grandson are going to spend Christmas together and it would be the opportunity to spend Christmas together, I have not had that joy for more than 10 years, I have not hugged my oldest daughter for 7 years and my grandson is 5 years old and I do not know him personally.
With that gift I would be the happiest woman in the world.
Thank you @ecency for giving me the opportunity to enjoy this dream with this initiative.
Merry Christmas Hive friendsβ€οΈπŸŒΉπŸ€—

Me encantarΓ­a desenvolver un sobre con un boleto de πŸ›©οΈ con destino a Atlanta para pasar las Navidades, mis dos hijos y mi nieto van a pasar las Navidades juntos y serΓ­a la oportunidad de pasar las navidades juntos, hace mΓ‘s de 10 aΓ±os no tengo esa dicha, hace 7 que no abrazo a mi hija mayor y mi nieto tiene 5 aΓ±os y no lo conozco personalmente.
Con ese regalo serΓ­a la mujer mΓ‘s feliz del mundo.
Gracias @ecency por darme la oportunidad de disfrutar de este sueΓ±o con esta iniciativa.
Feliz Navidad amigos de Hiveβ€οΈπŸŒΉπŸ€—

Let's talk based on reality, who knows I might get the gift. πŸ₯°
So, I would love to unwrap Samsung Galaxy Tab S10+ ✌🏼😎 However, I can get this gift only through magic because there is no one in my circle who can give me such a gift. But where there is Santa let's hope for the Magic. β›„β˜ƒοΈ
