On Saturday, worshippers throughout South Asia and around the

world will celebrate DIWALI, the Hindu festival of lights.

This period of rejoicing, which is also called DEEPAVALI, will

mark the victory of brightness over darkness and provide a time for

celebrants to reaffirm connections to loved ones.

This also gives me the opportunity to wish one of my readers

enjoy the celebrations !

At 8:50 AM, Ginco said...: Thanks Bazza, I agree with you, there are so many interesting people out there in the world, and yet we know far too little of their background and culture!
The Diwali festival started today and I thought it would be an interesting post. :-)
At 3:46 AM, Sigma said...: Thank you so very much. I am overwhelmed. Really.
I am back from celebrating the festivities at my in-laws'.
I wish that this festival of lights bring joy and cheer and peace in your life too. And in the rest of the world.
Thanks again.

At 5:26 AM, Ginco said...: Sigma, the opportunity to post a little something about the Diwali celebrations - the pleasure was all mine, I'm pleased to hear you spent a lovely time with your in-laws, and I wish you everything that's wonderful as well, :-)

Wow Katt, slow down, but thank you, I'm flattered and flustered, but I thought this could be an appropiate post, :-)
