spent my Diwali vacation at my grandmother's house.My cousins were also there.We had so much fun there.On Diwali,We decorated our houses with lighting and flowers.We made 'Rangoli' at the entrance gate and near the temple.We went to temple for Lakshmi Pooja.I did so many activities like distributing sweets and bursting crackers.After some days we all visited zoo.My cousin Rhea entertained us by mimicry of different animals.Then we went to amusement park where I enjoyed playing in water pool.Therafter we came back home.My grandmother made Biryani for us which was so delicious.She packed home made sweets for me.I enjoyed my vacation a lot.
I remember when I was in class 1, I wrote an essay on Diwali. I scribbled ‘Diwali is a festival of lights; people decorate their homes and exchange greetings……’ Well, Is it actually bringing light and happiness around? is it actually sending positive vibes and blessings for happy and long life for the people around us?? If we are honest the answer is ‘No’. For most of us Diwali is just a synonym to a night full of crackers, noise and smoke. All this is an amalgamation of gloom, darkness, despair, health problems, environment degradation and murk. We scare the birds to death, shorten the lives of children who are engaged in cracker factories, trouble the heart and hospitalized patients, burn thousand of rupees to ashes in the name of ceremonies. Do we have to pay such a heavy cost to buy a smile for ourselves? It is nothing but a sadistic pleasure to have moments of joy in exchange of mass havoc. After all Goddess Lakshmi does not want us to dispel the darkness of amavasya in this way. Let us enjoy Diwali in its purest form by lighting lamps, offering prayers and by making this world a better place for you and for me and for the entire universe. Happy Diwali.
