Diwali times have always been a source of strong motivational force to turn my world upside down...
Don't worry, not in any wrong sense..I mean in changing things for better than before.
Throughout the year when the whole family is juggling in their mind bogging routines of office, school, home trying to fit meals, assignments, tests, homework and a lot more (recreation of course) than the capacity to handle and that too on set times certain areas of home do go neglected. And festival times like Diwali (in India) still hold importance and a good excuse for de-cluttering hidden nooks around the house.
After two whole days unceasing sole hard work the results were quite pleasing for all.
The kids suddenly preferred sitting in dining room instead of bed with usual television cartoons. Rearrangements in the living room with new colors displayed on old walls and slight change upholstery and furnishings were enough to attract them to their right places. I wished I had tried this before to get such obedience from them.
Such experiences do teach parents how to deal with their boredom from time to time..
Anyways, getting rid of things no longer in use or requirement in future was the best happening. All seemed much lighter and positive.
Diwali is absolutely said to be the festival of lights, leading to an improved nurturing ambiance, filling our cells with an energy to live fully and at best..
Keep smiling.. :)
Bye for now..
