Yesterday was Diwali - The Festival of Lights
Diwali also called Deepavali, is the Hindu festival of lights, with variations celebrated in other Indian religions such as Jainism and Sikhism. It symbolises the spiritual victory of Dharma over Adharma, light over darkness, good over evil, and knowledge over ignorance. it’s celebrated Nov 1st.
In the dimly lit alleyways, a young ebony-skinned boy in a wheelchair finds himself surrounded by a glow that grows brighter with every flicker of a diya, every spark in the air. His eyes hold a quiet wisdom as he speaks, “Knowledge conquers all.” In that moment, he embodies the spirit of Diwali—where light triumphs over darkness, good prevails over evil, and knowledge dispels ignorance.
He wheels forward, leaving shadows behind, each turn of his wheels a symbol of resilience, courage, and the unwavering belief that light will always find a way. His presence radiates a quiet power, reminding us that true strength lies in illuminating the world around us, even from the most unexpected places.
This Diwali, may we all remember that victory is not just in grand gestures but in the smallest of sparks, in the simple act of choosing light over darkness every day
