As we start the 5 day Festival on an auspicious note, This is our wish for you this Diwali Festive Season:
Comfort on difficult days, Smiles when sadness intrudes,
Rainbows to follow the clouds,
Laughter to kiss your lips, Sunsets to warm your heart, Hugs when spirits sag,
Beauty for your eyes to see, Friendships to brighten your being,
Faith so that you can believe,
Confidence for when you doubt,
Courage to know yourself,
Patience to accept the truth,
Compassion to feel the pain,
Empathy to share and care,
Kindness to cause a smile,
Big heart to give generously
and Love to complete your life.
The Festive weekend is here, Let’s spread smiles all around. Become busy in seeing, encouraging and inspiring the best in others.
Giving good wishes to others acts like sunlight, filtering into the dark corners of their mind and lightening their burdens.
The more you develop the habit of noticing goodness, the more your own sense of wellbeing increases.
Do something today to brighten the life of another person.
In this Festive time, smile and be the reason someone smiles! Do good, wish good for everyone & Stay blessed forever.
