Diwali 🪔 of Hearts 💞 by Rajib Kumar Jena @ os.me

We celebrate 🎊 Diwali 🪔 with so much colour, light, illumination, decoration, joy and cracking fire 🔥. Diwali 🪔 is a celebration 🎊 of life and living. But I wonder, how much of this joy percolates to everyone in the society ? Is Diwali soothing the pain of poverty, marginalisation, ostracisation, and decimation of dreams ? When we are enjoying our moments of illumination, is it illuminating someone’s darkness of despair?

Let us dedicate our celebration 🎉 of Diwali 🪔 as lightening up the dreams amidst despair. Let us share our moments of happiness with someone who is in need of a human touch, a human support, a human smile, a human gift 💝. Let us light our own heart with a dazzling empathy that lightens the lives of many to remember Diwali as a celebration of human kindness

Imagine a rich country donating a huge sum to a poor country as a debt free financial package wrapped with the love ❤️ of Diwali 🪔. What a gesture it will show to the world 🌍 in form of being so rich in empathy and kindness, richer than being rich in materialistic wealth. When we could reach that state of celebrating Diwali 🪔, the true meaning of Diwali 🪔 will be deciphered

Let us zero-set our negativity on the day of Diwali 🪔. Let us forgive and forget. Let us start afresh with a new turf of love and compassion, tolerance and understanding, giving and contributing, soothing and supporting

Happy Diwali 🪔 to all my friends here

Hari Om
