It has been five days, since I last posted. Well, it was Christmas, relatives pouring in for celebrations, some more woolen clothes' shopping and some LG (Life’s Good) cooking classes for me!
I was filled with enthusiasm on the Christmas day, heart filled with serene peace from praying in front of the Universal Father, lighting candles and confessing; when I wished one of my acquaintances a merry Christmas.
Don’t promote western culture was the instant answer I received. I was baffled, by such a cruel display of emotions.The reply I gave is an appeal to every such person, who wonders why people celebrate all festivals with avidity. As a small child, I always used to wonder why we don’t have cakes and puddings on twenty fifth of December. I felt I am missing some great fun. Today, in this modern era, would you like to see your child in front of the television watching some movie pondering where his Christmas tree and gift is, just as you did? Why do we have to divide children and kill their innocence on the name of caste, religion or culture. Let them fly free like a bird. Let every person have the right to choose what they wish to celebrate or follow. In the end, these are just different ways to reach the same destination of resurrection.
A belated Merry Christmas, buddy!!
