D for Deepavali!!



The D day!

Festivals always bring in some vibrant energy to people. At a time when the world has been facing the global recession, the inflation, price rise, terrorism, global warming and many day to day issues, only festivals like these bring some cheers to the saddened soul.

The very thought of celebrating a festival with your family and friends would make you smile and that’s the power of these festivals and these do still remind us of lot of values in life which we forget on a normal day.

Now here are the TOP 5 remembrances for the next Gen of the D Day!

  1. One day holiday
  2. Meet old friends & Relatives
  3. Reason to buy new dresses / gadgets
  4. Watch all the new cinema releases & TV programs
  5. Eat lot of sweets


This is how most of our generation celebrates Deepavali. Iam sure many of the teens wouldn’t even know the reason why Deepavali is celebrated. Sometimes I just wonder should we stop following all these western ways of living. Whatever I do have a strong belief that soon there would be strong desire to search and follow the Indian traditions and values because of the simple reason that the west has just started to do that.

I wish everyone a very Happy and prosperous Diwali. Let this festival of light bring all the light you needed in your life.

You're right..people nowadays tend to disregard tradition and live a more Westernized lifestyle.. Western lifestyle rocks in some ways but I don't see why we can't be cultured too.. In Malaysia, Deepavali = lots of mutton and chicken curry.. Lol.. Happy Deepavali.. Thanks for ur comment.. =D
