Festivals in India are celebrated for every reason and season, for every religion and region, for every legend and myth… which is why we are often called the land of festivals! Diwali is the festival of lights. Diwali is derived from the word ‘Dipavali’ meaning ‘a cluster of lights’. Like children in schools and homes illumine our lives with their innocent charm and laughter, and we must in turn take away unenlightenment and values with good family relationships and bonding. All schools learning of knowledge and love revolve around circle of our life. We should accept the fact that in order to succeed in life it is essential to experience darkness and un-fulfillment as it makes us dig and fumble for enlightenment and learning. I need to publicized to one and all that there is always a hope, shimmer and glimmer of light to give us self-assurance and self-confidence. Let us find that spark from this very festival of light to motivate our ‘future’ that is our ‘children ’to progress, become generous and be kind.
