Divali or the " festival of Lights " is celebrated
by the Hindu community worldwide. It commemorates the return of Lord Rama &
his wife Sita back to Ayodhya after being exiled from an evil king.
The people lit earthern lamps to guide them back home
It also signals the end of the harvest season
so Mother Lakshmi is also worshipped in this holiday as people pray to her
for good luck and prosperity in the next season.
I went to my friend Nirvana's house for Divali.
I wore a black Shalwar Kameez with these silver workings that made it really
really heavy. I got to her house at like minutes to 6pm. Her boyfriend , sisters& parents greeted me warmly. Since it was 6 we began to set the deyas up. We
lit em all over on the fence , the jandi and her balcony. It looked so pretty
afterwards.
The three of us then went up and had dinner together. Her bf is really nice.
Had traditional Indian food like Roti , curry vegetables and rice for desert
chocolate ice-cream.
More of her cousins and family came. Then we decided to go for a walk.
Her cousin came in a long ass Sari and decides to join us and we had to walk up the road at snail's pace. The neighbourhood was beautiful. Bamboo arches ,
the star arches , deyas every single place , kids playing with starlights
and occasional fireworks. It looked really beautiful under the yellow light
of the street lamps.
We walked up to a school mate of mine Aarti's home. Well she had those lamps
lining the whole street. We stayed for a while then we walked back down.
Some people on dune buggy's racing past us. Stayed for a bit and then I called
dad to come pick me up.
We then went to pick Kiev up at his friend's house in Rousillac.
Rousillac was alight with deyas , it was pretty smoky & the air was full of
firecarackers , bamboo bursting , carbide exploding and fireworks. My brother's friend's neighbourhood was quiet though. Just the deyas flicking on the fences
and yards quietly.
I enjoyed the drive and I had a good day otherwise <3
