Diwali
What does it mean to me?
A time for spring cleaning
Donning those overalls :) climbing up the rickety ladder and washing and wiping those year old walls. Do you think I am joking?
And now its all about being the pujari of two houses and one office :)
Rakhi
What does it mean to me?
making a list of 'all' my brothers (twice the number of fingers and two more --literally more than a handful :))
We are 3 sisters but I don’t have a brother as in a no real brother and probably that’s why all my first cousins, and some of my second cousins form the focus of our attention during this festival this time round
Rakhis go all around the globe for us now as all brothers have spread their wings :)
Holi
What does it mean to me?
Colors, unreconizable faces, Water, Balloons, Rangoing some people completely and just putting a Teeka on others
Seeing people of all ages in Silver Oaks come out and play this festival of colors with unabashed aplomb.
Most importantly this is my time with Yohaan and really watching him have fun and having fun because he is having fun :)
