The very first time when I am away from my home at Diwali. The Day started here with the phone call of Nishi Di(my second elder sister). I received the Diwali wishes from all her family with a demand of a video game from my nephew (the mischievous cheeku ). Di reminded me once again to take care of my health and to eat properly as she always does. She told me that she talked to mummy Papa and they are feeling lonely. Me too. So much lonely as never before.
This is the life and you have to face such moments when you want to be with someone and you find no one there. Then you remember all those cheerful moments when you celebrated your festivals, shared your happiness and repentance and every feeling with them. The only wish you have is to make them happy, to feel felicity ,always, with you or without you. But I know the real pleasure is always to be with.....
Anyway, as the life goes on, my day also continued with the same daily routine, having bath followed by breakfast and then to move towards my department to work. But the day was not the same. Every moment I was feeling if I can reach back my home anyhow. Suddenly a tune of the song "Kal ho na ho" shaken my thoughts. It was a phone call which bring me back from the memories of my home. "Home" displayed over the screen of my cell phone. I realised the situation. And as I was anticipating, the next few moments were highly sentimental. My mom was crying another side and she and my father was missing me badly as I was. Saying them to celebrate properly without me, I finished the call. Now I was more out of mind and alone. I checked my mails and replied for all Diwali wishes. After finishing all these work with a heavy heart I left my office for the lunch. I had had my lunch and a nap for almost two hour.
The conversation at tea time started with the Diwali wishes to my apartment-mates. I explained about the Diwali, The biggest Hindu festival, across the Whole world as the festival of Light and Happiness and a welcome to the wealth and prosperity through the worship of Goddess Laxmi and Lord Ganesha. One of the Mythological aspect behind Diwali celebration is the come back of "Lord Ram" to Ayodhya after defeating the evil Asur Lankan King "Ravan".
Then we decided to celebrate Diwali and the celebration started with enlightening the candles with prayer followed by a Dinner and at last playing some Poker(most commonly played game Flush) as a tradition of Diwali night to have some good luck with wealth.... :):) ( The most imp one ha ha ha ). We played up to 4 AM in the morning. I won some of the games but at last I lost 4 Euros. It's a game I thought, and finished Happy having all the celebrations of Diwali@Coimbra. :) :)
So Wishing Everyone A very very Happy Diwali. Enjoy yourself, play poker, but don't use much amount of money. Ha ha ha ha.... :):)
