the celebrations have already begun.so glad that the dark clouds which brought some heavy rains for the past coupla weeks have bid adieu.these days are soo very different.not the usual ones...my home now occupies a herd of ppl rather than jus 4.this means more shoes outside my house,more the chitter chatter that happens in the evenings and more the fun.the powerful speakers which my TV boasts of is now put to shame.the high dB crackers make sure they are the only ones in the city to rattle our ear drums...the colorful shots in the sky is a pure visual treat.the sweets which i gobble up at very reg intervals makes me a sweeter guy today.jus hrd bush extending his greetings to the indian commn in the US.well....all i can wish them is a "HAPPY DE-WALL-I".the box of crackers thats rite next to me is a tempt inducer.i m having a cracker of a time.
i look out of the window.i see smiles.ppl r happy.almost all offices are closed.some still giving their extra to wrap things up and get into the diwali dhamaka.after all...this is a festival of hope,joy and happiness.all festivals in this world carry wid them a history and some significance.but in India...they also carry with them loads of joy,fun and happiness.the fact that indian youth are the happiest in the world bears testimony to this.
preparing for more decibels...no i m not plugging the cotton into my ears..
preparing for more pollution.....no i not staying away frm the place...
all i want to do now is get down to burst the crackers wid my dears...
coz this is time for fun and is a quantum of solace...
yours diwali
