Deepawali celebrations are now over and its time for the people to get on with their daily routine. Children are back to schools and colleges and have started their preparations for the upcoming exams. People are back to their jobs and business. Fun time is over. People are fresh and filled with new energy and enthusiasm. A lot of time and money has been spent on recent festivities.
The festivals may have been a time of enjoyment for some people, but for many it has been a time filled with tension and work. Think of those people who were continuously on work.
Think of our brave soldiers, who were on the borders, protecting us from our enemies. Their was no Diwali for them. They were busy saving our borders while we were celebrating Deepawali. Think of their families.
Just think of those Doctors and nurses who were busy in the Hospitals with their patients. They were busy saving the lives of their patients and hence could not celebrate Deepawali.
Think of those people, working in railways, as Guards and Drivers. When the world was celebrating Deepawali, they were away from their families, performing their duties. They were busy running the trains on time, so that you could travel and meet your near and dear ones, on this festivals.
Recent visit of the American President Mr.Barack Obama, on Deepawali festival, had kept security services of our country busy. The holidays of all security personnel had been cancelled. They could not even think of the festival. Deepawali was also not meant for them.
Think of those poor population of the country who were busy earning their daily bread. How could they celebrate the festival with an empty stomach?
Their were many other people who could not celebrate the festival. But life for them did not stop. They are still living and enjoying life in their own way. Their work is their festival.
So next time when you celebrate Deepawali, just think that there are also some people who are deprived of celebrating the festival.
”Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.” – Mark Twain
About Me
- vijay
- JABALPUR, 18, India
- The only thing I really wish to do with my life is to inspire someone. I want to touch someone’s life so much that they can genuinely say that if they have never met me then they wouldn’t be the person they are today. I want to save someone; save them from this cold, dark and lonely world. I wish to be someone’s hero, someone that people look up to. I only wish to make a change, even if it’s a small one. I just want to do more than exist.
