Celebrating Togetherness<br />
Shikha Dahiya, 2nd Year, COE<br />
Gifts for people who are in need<br />
Your bright room already has enough light, light a candle in the gloom<br />
instead. Every year you spend money on buying gifts for your relatives<br />
and friends who are already doing well in their lives. Drop the formalities<br />
and buy something for the needy. That kid at the red light doesn’t<br />
know the true meaning of the festival of lights. Help him understand<br />
that by lightening up his day.<br />
Unleash creativity<br />
Rather than buying the wall hangings and bandhanwar from the market, add<br />
a personal touch to the decorations. Sit together with your family members or<br />
friends and shape your imagination into the adornments you would love to<br />
decorate your home with.<br />
Cook, bake and share<br />
Cook something with your friends, go out and share it with the ones who are<br />
deprived of a proper meal. It would not only satiate their hunger, but also infuse<br />
them with tons of happiness and joy.<br />
Visit an old age home or an orphanage<br />
Make someone’s lonely day special. Decorate their space with candles and<br />
their lives with your presence.<br />
Take care of the stray animals<br />
Avoid bursting crackers. The noise scares the animals. Do not tease the stray<br />
animals, nor let others do that. They may run into traffic out of fear, and get<br />
injured. Your fun must not cost a poor creature its life. If you have to burst<br />
crackers, then restrict yourself to a centralized location and keep the animals<br />
away from the place during the fireworks.<br />
