A wonderful Diwali

I have never celebrated Diwali in kerala before.The only Diwali crackers sound in my mind is when i ws in 2nd standard.That was real Diwali with sweets and crackers.I was at Nagpur with my grandpa's bro.That was my world with my choices and my likes ( as far as i rem ) .

But this Diwali was here only in my place.We a group of friends went to a orphanage (should not call it so still ....) to see small cuties.Soon we reached there ,the kids staying thr came and sat in a hall whr we were standing,thn som of us noticed a boarded in which two names hav written along with wishes for their birthday.One was the in charge sister and the other was one of the kis there.Then the sister gave us a small talk with detailed explanations about the kids timetable,sponsors etc.Then we started our chat that is the most wonderful.After some tim the thing tht i noticed was tht around everyone of us thr one at least one child who remained a their pet for the whole day(still thr r inside my mind ..........).By that tim the food had reached as we had arranged,we started serving.The next wondering is the kids discipline they all sat thr until they prayed the prayer together and one more thing i noticed was the clean leaves.Most of them had eaten all that was put on their vazhayilla.The comparison came when we sat to have food most of us dont do as they do.Here comes the difference we dont utilise what we hav but their life teach them to utilise whtever they get.

We run behind wht we dont get leaving behind wht we hav got.

Then aftr tht most of them played together, there as usual i was bit back there.I was simply an observer but i was noticing each and everyone.there is lot of thing i feel i havnt cared abt in this world.Realised how large the world is.Yes, to b frank i was much concerned to my world and had never cared to know about the world around me.But this day made me open myself to lot of thing just by thinking and spending few hours there.

I too hav got some favorite there.But one who made me bit sad while coming back was one who never spoke much the whole day. I tried a lot to make her talk.When it was tim to say bye to all she came close to me pulled me near her and gave a big smile.I hugged her and i felt my eyes wet.Still her smile is what i can see when i tell about that day.Hope i can see her and also rest all there later.

A real wonderful Diwali with such a cute innocent smile
