HAPPY DIWALI!

 

On the eve of Diwali, to my clients, friends, and colleagues who celebrate Diwali, may the Festival of Lights fill your hearts with happiness and bring you and yours joy, prosperity, peace, and good fortune in the year ahead.  May the sound of firecrackers fill your life with happiness and may the sweets sweeten your relationships.

 

“Allow each lamp you light to bring a smile to your face and to enlighten your soul. Allow the earthen lamp’s flame to cleanse your heart, mind, and soul. May the Diwali lamps brighten your life and the rangoli add more colours to it. May the sound of crackers and sweets bring more glee and cheer. The mirth, merriment, and joy of this divine festival surround you for the rest of your life. Happy Deepavali.”

...  Shree Shambav

 

 

May your Diwali be free from darkness and abundant with light!

 

For those of my readers, who are not familiar with Diwali and the Festival of Lights, which celebrates the triumph of good over evil,  the video below provides a four minute introduction to this annual celebration by over 1 billion people around the world.

 

 

“In the end, good triumphs over evil because light dispels darkness.”

– David Jeremiah

Nina Hollander, Broker - there have been two Diwali celebrations in my area that I know of. I went to the one in Flower Mound. It is a beautiful celebration. The second one was so big and crowded, I couldn't get near it and opted not to even try.

Patricia Feager, ABR,CRS,GRI,MRP hi Patricia... I'm always amazed at the beautiful dresses the women and girls wear for these festivals.

Nina Hollander, Broker - it's the traditions that mean so much that I am drawn to. Sadly, the traditions I practiced for festivals in reference to my culture and neighboring cultures I celebrated when I was young in Chicago do not exist in Texas. 

Dresswear for specific cultures are usually very beautiful and unique.
