Today is a special day as people around the world celebrate Diwali, the Hindu Festival of Lights. On this joyous occasion, I wish you and your families good health, prosperity — in every sense of the word — and the very best that life has to offer.
Today represents the triumph of good over evil, of new beginnings, and sharing our good fortunes. May the divine lights brighten the dark corners of our lives and our world so we can learn tolerance, respect and acceptance.
I miss my family in India, today more than any other day of the year. For some strange reason it is always an emotional day. Time to celebrate and do more for others, with hearts filled with gratitude. The more we give, the more we receive.
Peace. Prosperity. Joy. Good health. Long life. These are my wishes for you and yours, for the year ahead. Happy Diwali.
