Tomorrow is Diwali - the festival of lights & everybody is here in festive mood from today onwards. Almost every household in India is busy with cleaning and decorating their homes with myriads of decorative lights. We too have lit up our house with lights and made sweets, we will be exchanging gifts and sweets tomorrow. Wish all myLotters a HAPPY DIWALI.... Pic : my own

Is that a candle in a glass candle-holder? And can you tell us the story behind the festival of Diwali?

@mythociate You wanted to know the "story" behind Diwali....hence that link, because Diwali is celebrated across Hindus, Jains, Buddhists, and Sikhs, connotations are different... And what it means to me, well....that's what my post says, isnt it?? festival of lights, celebrations & foods...
