Here at client location, there was Diwali celebration. Pav-bhaji, Samosa, Frooti, deserts(kheer and gulab-jamun) and most importantly diwali slide show.
Every body was asking, What is Diwali? Why is it celebrated?
Everyone was trying to explain in his own way..
Some said it is festival of light and celebration. Others replied it as Hindu new year. Some tried to explain Rama-Ravana story, with it's importance equivalent to Christmas. Also we burn fire-crackers, wear new clothes, wish everyone good luck and pray to God for well-being.
So they were comparing it with Easter, Christmas and 4th of July.
One Indian colleague said it is an Indian version of Halloween. I was surprised by his comment. It is not Halloween at all. And being a representative of your country, your culture, one should not make this kind of remark. Its our duty to explain the correct thing.
And it is my sincere advice to all Indians in other countries, to make their true effort to explain your culture. Thanks!!

Decision making
Sometimes people think that the person who takes time in making decisions is not good enough to make decisions.
He/she takes time to make important decision of his life. One has to analyse all the pros and cons of that decision before choosing a particular path. Its not a game of blind in teen patti.
I admire one of my friend on his decision making ability. He takes time in making decision but once he closes on a thing, he puts his best foot forward. And, that how one should be.
