The Parcel

About WWII time-ish. Poor mother with lots of kids and no father knows they don't even have any food around Christmas time. They are dirty and ragged and live in one room in a city. That night as the wind is howling and the snow is falling, and she is feeling sorry for herself and her poor starving kids - at Christmas no less - she sees a poor blind guy stumbling about in the storm. He is begging and it is obvious that he has no home or family. She runs out in her scant clothing (for the storm) and guides him into their warm and cozy home. The kids gather round and laugh and tell stories and he holds them on his lap, and he is given the "home" feeling he needed much more than something in his stomach.
In the morning, he has gone, and left a brown parcel tied with string (typical of packages and presents of that era).
The mother opens it in front of the children, gathered around the hearth, and seemingly magic comes out - "Gratitude" comes out. And the mother realizes that his visit has made her gratefull for her beloved children and warmth and love against the cold.

A woman waves goodbye to her only son leaving on a boat to go to war (or should I have him arrested?). She returns lonely to her lonely room, the future looking bleak and lonely. Her cat runs out, and is chased by little kids wanting to pet it. She is nice and lets them, and finds herself smiling, as the kids remind her of her own child. As she returns with her cat to her room, the kids hand her the same parcel tied with string. Curiously, she opens it as soon as she's alone. Out comes the magic, and - "Hope!"

A convict finally gets out of prison. He is destitute and shunned by society. Everywhere he looks, he sees people hating him. He sleeps on a bench looking out to sea, and spends the day looking in garbage heaps for food. As he returns to his bench, he sees an old lady sitting on it. She has taken his few belongings he carefully stowed by the bench, and thown them away. He sees her as more of the hatred the world has for him, but as he comes closer, he sees tears in her eyes, and that she is looking at a picture of her son. Something about her reminds him of his own mother, and happier days gone by. He sits by her and talks with her kindly. As the night wanes, she leaves, giving him the parcel tied with string. He opens it wonderingly and the magic comes out - "Forgiveness!"

A scrawny teenager is bombarded with snowballs from other kids his age - he is more well to do than they are, and just doesn't fit in. He has no freinds. He sees a poor beggar filing through garbage. After watching and thinking for a while, he goes to offer him something, but finds he has nothing with him. The beggar smiles, and makes a joke. They talk, and the boy finds a keen mind under all that filth. He ends up seeing the beggar every day. They get to know each other, and laugh often. As the beggar leaves to find a new life, he hugs the boy, and gives him a parcel tied with string. The boy waves goodbye with tears in his eyes, then opens the package, magic comes out - "Freindship"

I'm not sure how to end this.
