India is the great country known as the land of festivals. One of the famous and most celebrated festival is Diwali or Deepawali which falls every year 20 days after the festival of Dussehra in the month of October or November. It is celebrated to commemorate the returning of Lord Rama to the Kingdom after the 14 years of exile. People of Ayodhya shown their their joy and happiness by lighting the lamps in the whole kingdom and firing crackers.
Diwali is known as the festival of lights or row of lights which is the symbol of coming of Lakshmi to the home and victory of truth over the evil. At this day Lord Rama had killed the demon king of Lanka, Ravan in order to save the earth from the bad activities. People do whitewash and clean up of their houses, offices, and shops to welcome the Lakshmi. They decorate their houses, lighting lamps and firing crackers.
It is common beliefs of people that buying new things at this day would bring home the Lakshmi. People buy gifts, clothes, sweets, decorative things, fire crackers and diyas. Kids buy toys, sweets and crackers from the market. In the evening, Lakshmi puja is held by the people at their home by lighting lamps. People take bath, wear new clothes and then start puja. After puja they distribute prasad and share gifts to each other. They pray to God for the happy and prosperous life. And in the last they enjoy burning fire crackers and playing games.
Everyone was very excited about the festival of the lights. I and my brother were the most excited member of the house as we would get the chance of bursting crackers. Our father had brought many crackers for both of us. On the day of Diwali, we made all the arrangements for the night to celebrate. When the night came, we rushed to the terrace and started to burst the crackers. Suddenly a cracker got misplaced and got burst where my brother was standing. He got hurt on his head and started to bleed. Everyone got very tensed and my father rushed to the nearest hospital carrying my brother. He got three stitches on his head and the doctor suggested not to burst crackers. He said that bursting crackers are harmful both for the environment and the body as well. My father decided that from the coming Diwali he would celebrate Diwali without bursting crackers.
