So far, although Scrooge is a wealthy man, he has been a miser, who not only does not provide comfort for himself, as may be seen by his personal possessions as shown in Scene four, when a small group of gredy people have collected them from the home where he lies dead, in the future. Also, Scrooge has witnessed Cratchit's family, and how he, and his wife and children rejoice in their mutual company and manage an abundant Christmas dinner despite the fact that Cratchit's wages are so low. Scrooge is also moved by Tiny Tim, who expresses so much joy and gratitude despite being so ill and is bound to die soon if his family continues to live in poverty. Scrooge hars how disliked he is by Cratchit's wife and how his neighbors care nothing for mim, all because of his miserliness. When he decides to change and to share his wealth generously, he rejoices with the joy he gives the boy Adam, the poultry seller, and Bob Cratchit's family, whom he anonymously sends a huge turkey; these actions of generosity set his own spirits high, so he opens his heart to enjoy Christmas with his nephew Fred and his wife.
