The Beautiful Emotions Of Diwali

The Beautiful Emotions Of Diwali

(a colorful emotion too)

 

 

 

Diwali is just around the corner. Exactly 90 degrees (at the time of posting this). In case you don't get it, it was nine pm when I posted it and so yeah you must have got it by now. Well lets get back on track then. Diwali. The moment you read the title I bet your mind would have been bombarded with thousands of thoughts. It's au naturel. It is a trait of a normal Human being. Rather a human brain I can say. Allow me to screed your top ten thoughts out of the infinite thoughts that just doesn't end with food.

 

Here are the top ten thoughts (happy ones and sad ones)
 

1. Sweets and souvenirs

2. New clothings and shopping

3. Diwali bonus(comes from company or grandparents or both) 

4. Oil bath *sigh* 

5.Crackers *bang bang bang*

6.So much sweets and im going to get fat

7.Damn it I love to eat. Sweets again

8. Get together with family relatives and our friends

9. FDFS for Thala/Thalapathy movies

10.Wishing your Crush a happy Diwali(to their family too)

 



    Crackers and Sweets have become synonyms for Diwali. The people around us, look at them instead of your newsfeed. We will be one. We lose our differences and cherish the moment if not the day. That satisfies the very purpose of any festival. You see a stranger, you say " Happy Diwali ji", he waves backs and reciprocates. Doesn't this happen everyday? Hell no. He thinks you're a lunatic sociopathe who tries to kidnap and sell their kidneys for the new iPhone. Festival is designed to make us feel good and spread the good vibe to those who cant afford it. That is why our culture has a lot of Festivals. To spread the joy and to make the less fortunate smile, we share what we can to alleviate their sadness momentarily. To share, to care, to make them smile, to levitate our happiness and our mood despite our stressful lives we celebrate.Thank God there are so many festivals.

 

Even though we dissolve our differences, residues do remain. Greed is the top contender amongst the many. Greed can alone destroy anything and everything it lays it's eyes upon. Greed is akin to cancer except that it's not biological. Greed evolves from need. That is why there is an old saying,"Be content with what you have". With greed comes a little bit of looting. and why does it come along with it? If you can't satisfy your greed in a clean way then looting takes over. Looting is akin to a parasite controlled by greed. To overcome these, the greatest minds who once lived even before A.D. was predicted in the B.C. who practically wrote the drafts of the culture, mentioned the word share. Next is Ego. Life could be so easy if one can erase it as simple as erasing with an eraser. A lot of meaningful emotions and relations cease because of this.

Negate the culture aside. To our conscience let us descend from who we wish to be to who we really are. Share your feelings, haven't caught up with old pals? there couldn't be an even more purposeful day. Carry sweets when you meet them. Hug them. Smile at people you know. Doesn't alone make you confident, it as well makes them happy. Smile is an emotion so is happiness. Spread the good vibe. Share what you have to the less fortunate. For instance Share sweets with maids, security guards, drivers or anyone at all you know. Because to give is an emotion. To receive is an emotion as well. To see then Smile as they receive is an emotion which I will say is way above everything!

This is an article written hastily on behalf of me to wish all my readers, their friends and family a very pleasant as well as a silent and happy colorful Diwali. I wish this festival of lights will banish the darkness inside everyone of you so that it doesn't remember it's way back to you ever again. I also appreciate those who are celebrating this festival of light without any noise.. In spite of being bullied for being eco friendly and branded as "vetti scene" you guys are doing a great job. Proud of you people.  I hope to see a lot of you guys, to restrict yourself from bursting crackers and burning your money for that. Once again, let the light dominate the darkness. Happy Diwali :)
