Today is Karthigai Deepam, a festival of lights celebrated by south Indians through out the globe . Karthigai Deepam happens to be auspicious.Row of clay lamps are lit in the house & work place to bring peace & prosperity. It is worshiped to bring happiness in the lives & ward off all the troubles in life🕉
As I grew up I watched my Mom light an oil/ghee lamp every morning to start the day with positivity and close the day by lighting a oil/ghee lamp to give thanks for our daily blessings. Starting the day with positive intentions and ending the day with a grateful heart is something I think we all should do. Lighting a lamp brings peace and positivity to our soul . My Mom is my greatest inspiration.. following her ..
Teach kids NOT to forget our roots . Our Culture,Heritage , Tradition is the one which moulds us . I believe all custom,culture,religion teaches the basic things needed for a person to be good they are LOVE,KINDNESS and COMPASSION . I feel these are the basics a kid should posses to become a good human .
Love and Respect each other.. Bring Peace !
Children are the future generation . Lets make the World Beautiful and Peaceful !
Love Always , Devi
