'"Happy Diwali"'
Well a few ppl havent left ne kasar 2 mke it happy! Lives of millions in da hands of a handful of fanatics... Life cun be ne fairer! Sme ppl decorate der houses, others c dem shatter, Smewhere der r celebrations goin on n at others mournin, sme offer flowers to idols others 2 dead corpses. Ol I cn say is dat as i hear da crackers burst outside m reminded of dose blasts.. Curse dose responsibe! Why did dey do it? Hw cud dey do it. Do i 1ce agen console maself by sayin ol why's donot have n ans, da Q izn dat hw cn sum1 do it, da facts dat sum1s dun it. Bt dis time it duzn seem 2 work.. All dos injured, all dose hurt n ol dose dead.... Wot was der fault.. Why did dey have 2 fall prey 2 da madness of a few misguided fools. R dose lyin in pain in da hospitals agonized by da sounds of crackers, duz all da lite 2day remind dem of fire, all da sound of screams n all da laughter of der life b4 dis terrible fate n grieve dem more. N its nt jus dem.. der frenz.. der family..
Ever since a kid ur taught - Diwali is da festval of lites. It marks d end of toil. Today u worship ganesha n Lakshmi -Lord Ganesha cures ol ur hurdles n Goddess Lakshmi brings prosperity. As a child I'v always pictured Diwali as lite, crackers, rangoli, fun, laughter, celebrations..
N dats hw i pictred it til bout a week bac. N den suddenly sum1 ruins da img. N i gess dats xactly wot dey wanted...
Bt have dey actually succeeded?
Dese blasts have caused alot of destruction - both of life n property. If dis gives em satisfaction let em think agen.. da blasts have nt bin able 2 uproot da virtues every indian bears in his heart.. India still stands united, as strong n steady as ever.
Al da lite 2day is 2 show dem u havent succeeded.. Crackers roar n thunder 2 warn dem dun u dare do dis agen.. V will oppose u, fite u n defeat u at every step!
I agree dey have affected me bt at da same time instillled even stronger feelings for my country n countrymen.
Da mourning is transitory.. N our determination firmer dan eva b4. Hu r v 2 distinguish b/w hindus n muslims wen 'Ram' is in 'Ramzaan' n 'Ali' in 'Diwali'.
May everyone wake up n c da lite of gudwil, luv, trust, peace n unity.
Happy Diwali!
Best wishes,
