Festival of Lights

Though the markets (stock that is) are taking a beating, plunging down to 7000 points, the festive spirits are being kept alive by some brave souls like me. I wasn’t going to let the slowdown dampen the illumination around us. So I went out and got some lights to put up at home and also indulged in buying some firecrackers. After dinner we started the festivities by lighting up. Ok actually the festivities had started a day before with the amount of sweets consumed. I think this whole lighting up crackers was a result of the sugar rush. Anyway once underway, we lit up phooljaris, anars, rockets and charkis. All that light and the occasional boom were quite exhilarating. The smoke was the downside of the entire evening.
