Peace And Love This Diwaali

"There is not enough darkness in this whole world to put out the light of even one small candle."
Likewise there is not enough hatred in this world that can put out the light of love.

Hatred may raise its head often.
But every time it will be overwhelmed and over powered by love ... 
That is the strength of love. 
That is the light of love.
It makes Peace visible and within reach.

An individual is only as good as the Peace and Light s/he radiates.
Hold the Lamp of Love in your hands.
Make way through the dense darkness ...
Light The Path ahead ...
Sooner or later everyone will follow ...

Lighting diyas of love, hope and peace this Diwaali and Wishing everyone a prosperous and Peaceful festive season

And as I do this I am reminded of a beautiful couplet by Mir Taqi Mir:
“Uss ke farogh-e-husn se jhamke hain sab mein nuur
Sham-e-Haram ho ya ho diya Somnath ka” 

Dear Friends and Family! Happy Diwali to all of us :-)

"An individual is only as good as the Peace and Light s/he radiates." Well said, Zohra ji. Thanks also for sharing the couplet. Finally, "Happy Diwali to all of us :-)" did not escape my attention. Thank you, lovely.

Sorry for reading this today, i.e. very-very late. Thanks for the wishes. I am around you Diwali was as you wished.

I loved the lines of Mir Taqi Mir so much. Those have so profound meaning.
