@@@HAZE IN THE AIR@@@

This is the first tym tat m gonna write sonmething on a social issue.Well, on second thoughts it may be a general awareness actually.Oh!gosh i miss out writing smthg on a social issue yet agn.Grrr...

This blog is about knowing the real essence of something i.e. DIWALI.This tym i was hom as usual to celeberate the festival.The day came an in te evening i was ambulating in my sector to take a view of how the houses were decorated.The spectacular lighting all around u.But the fun was all lost when i started coughing due to the foul smell and smoke that was ubiquitous.We had to go in our car then to see the spectacular lighting.The real essence of the festival is lost somewhere as it is a festival of lights.It gives a feeling of togetherness with ur loved ones sharing gifts and sweets to express ur love and affection for them.

However, people now find it more enjoyable to burn crackers.I dont believe in burning crackers and havin fun as it is a loss of money,resources,energy and what n what not.It adds to air and noise pollution and also litters around ur surroundings.Although this tym the crackers were a little less but hat shows our concern on the issue on a lower side.As the ppl who are educated also do not understand the consequences of the action.Cracker industires involve child labour which is a crime and ppl are helping it boom by buying them.The govt. has been quite slack in taking the reqd. measures but they r not the only one to be blamed it is we who r at fault.

THE RICH AND THE FAMOUS spend money on crackers ostentatiously like water from a tap as it is status symbol for them to spend lavishly.Then starts the crackers bursting competition in the night to see whose anaar is better and burns for a longer tym.One burns the multi-coloured sparkling one then the other burst the one with twinkling golden and silver stars.The one who wins has a big grin on his face and a large cloud of smoke spraeds its arms in the air to engulf their own houses and spoil their health.Why dont these ppl spend some money on charityif they hav so much to give it away.

Their are many places especially in the metros where u are not favoured to build a temple near ur locality but other leisure giving places like cafes,discos etc are given instant permission.They believe that wud give tym to party and release tensions and frustrations.But i believe what is most important in life is the peace of mind and heart which can be attained inplaces where there is some silence and everythings in harmony.And there is something they must know is that going to temple and meditating for sometym is the best leisure and the best way to release ur tensions and frustrations.

So i believe that DIWALI can be best celebrated by lighting ur homes and welcoming goddess Lakshmi and also show ur concern, care for ur near and dear ones.
