we clebrated divali yesterday even without power and I saw where faith and determination can get a person. My mom was determined that we must do our puja on that day and at 9-11 am we did a puja. I was being miserable and grumpy in the morning but during the puja I felt a calm come over me and I realised the necessity for prayers even when we don't have all utilities. it rained all day and I saw the blessing in the rain as it fed all the poor broken trees and gave them the necessary water to spring back to life.
I was worried about the deeyas and the rain but we lit them anyway and decorated the entire yard. it was beautiful, the rain fell heavily but the deeyas refused to die out, they kept on lighting probaly until midnight. I felt a strong sense of nostalgia as I looked at the little deeyas and I wanted to cry so much. How stupid I had been to even be grumpy, the night was beautiful and magical, I wished that I had more people to share it with, but I am very happy that I had my little family fo five with me.
