The ways in which I think that today’s ""Christmas spirit"" <em>may be different </em>from the Christmas spirit of Dickens’s time is that:
While Dickens believe that the Christmas time was a period when <em>people were more charitable</em> and open to being more expressive, in today's Christmas spirit, there is <em>much competition among peers</em> and envy.
With this in mind. we can see that the way the spirit of Christmas has changed from Dickens time in <em>A Christmas Carol </em>was that Dickens believed that Christmas time was a<em> period of giving, loving, forgiving</em> and being more open with each other, there is a slight difference today as people seem to be in competition with each other and are more envious.
