Festival of Lights

This year's diwali also over..But I must admit that every year, the excitement of this festival is reducing..atleast for me.. I don't know if it happens with everyone... As every year has passed by, each festival has become less prominent to me.. Maybe it has got to do with growing up... But does it make sense? Does having less celebration means that you are being serious towards life? or being more serious towards life means having less celebration? Both doesn't make sense.I start pondering which festival did I really celebrate? When I was really happy?... Then it strikes me that I have always been in a festive mood when all my friends have been here.. My best friend has came back from cruise for a three month leave.. The weekends that we spend together, making schedules for the activities that we are going to do in the coming weekends.. this is celebration for me...Then I start thinking, what about my family? My mom and dad would also be wishing that their children spend the weekends with them talking just about anything... Yes.. They always do.. It's just that they don't express it... and I am glad that I made them happy this diwali... Maybe festival is all about our family and friends.. about the people who care about us..about them who love us.
