Holi!!!

Happy Holi!!! The Holi this year brought in so many memories, how I actually tried not playing last year and how I was actually dragged out of the house, they broke my door down and dragged me out, of course I did end up having fun after that...


What was left of my last door..they came in after they broke that hole...




My New Door.....




My old door again...















This year was a different, I was for some reason or the other looking forward to play the festival of colours..I did take some precautions like applying loads of gingerly oil on myself to look a little normal on my farewell... It hasnt worked that well till now as the chemicals in the powder nullified the effect of the oil, nevertheless I had fun...playing the game with friends... pulling everyone and applying colour on their face and hair...
















The festival of holi brought to me other memories like how some people restrained themselves from playing the game for various reasons, some of them because they couldnt and some because it was considered to be a north indian festival...I frankly dont understand this funda or concept of north indian and south indian, I never have and never will...to me the only classification as I see it is what the nature has made of us...what they call gender..male and female...can one differentiate the northy from the southy in the snaps...We all look the same...colourful...:) well thats holi for you....

Holi is just harvest celebration to mark the climax of spring, very much similar to that of what we celebrate pongal in the south...I really dont understand why people look at festivals also this way...but I guess its their way of looking at things, I can only wonder now...am not promising that i'll change things, but i'll definitely try to make a difference....
