Stave Two So Far, A Christmas Carol

In stave two we meet the ghost of Christmas past, it takes Scrooge to all the christmas that he was alone. When the spirit arrived to Scrooge, it said that it would take him to his lonely past, when he was a child. When they get to the first scene, Scrooge is shown his childhood, he was very lonely. Since he was at boarding school, his father did not like him, and was abusive to Scrooge. Since his father did not like him, when it was Christmas, Scrooge was the only person  at his boarding school, Scrooge saw himself sitting next to a fireplace reading a book. Scrooge tells the ghost that he remembers that the only friends that he had were the characters in his book. The ghost also shows Scrooge his home town, and Scrooge says that he remembered that place, and that he can walk the town blind folded because he knows it so well. The next thing that the spirit showed Scrooge was that he shows Scrooge his sister Fan, in this scene Fan came one christmas to the boarding school that Scrooge was living in, and tells Scrooge that his father has become nicer, because she convinced him for him to go back home. Scrooge deeply loved fan, but Scrooge dislikes her son because Fan died due to giving birth to Frank, which is also Scrooge's nephew. Scrooge seems to blame Fred for Fan's death, that is why he really dislikes him, and does nothing to do with him. The ghost then takes Scrooge to Mr. Fezziwig, Scrooge says that he Mr. Fezziwig's apprentice, because Mr. Fezziwig was teaching him how to work with money, so that would mean that Scrooge was an accountant, and he would open his own work place to count the money.

I think that Scrooge has a really sad and lonely past, this is why he is probably always mean to everyone, and he hates Christmas. Now that he regrets everything that the spirit has showed him, Scrooge will change his way of how he acts to people. I think that Scrooge just need some time to think of the actions he had done earlier, for example how he closed the door on a christmas caroler. Scrooge know regrets doing that because he knows that the caroler was probably lonely like Scrooge, when he was a child. Scrooge now wished that he at least would have gave the Christmas Caroler some money to him. Eventually, Scrooge will come to his senses, and think about what he has done, and become a better person.
